3-piece, dark-pop, Seattle band, VISCERAL CANDY met local hip-hop artist TIM STILES in late 2015 after being placed on a bill with Stiles’ satirical hip hop project, Passion Party. The result became an album appropriately titled, ‘Visceral Candy Feat. Tim Stiles’— an exploration of transparent narratives, sleepless nights, hungry bellies, bad habits, & uncomfortable social situations. Vacillating from neurotic self-consciousness to oblivious swagger, the overarching importance of being thankful for others while simply trying to find one’s place in this world reins true.

In case anyone still needs reminding that California is a sun-drenched paradise with a laid back mentality and great surf, one listen to GRINGO’S, ‘The Shores’ should be enough to sufficiently drive the point home. GRINGO’s ten-track debut is a collection of stories from the last year and a half of life on the west coast and despite this being the band’s first release, it seems as though the singer/guitarist has been preparing for it for most of his life.
