Douglas and the Furs / Hindu Pirates

Hailing from a garage on a side street of Orange County, trio Douglas and the Furs are making serious noise all around Southern California and in an increasingly large list of surrounding areas. Blending powerful punching riffs, dark bluesy melodies, and just the right dose of chaos, they may as well be forcing the bodies of their listeners to move. Straying away from their reverb soaked feel good surf pop surroundings they present a harsher yet perhaps more genuine take on modern music. Having just released their debut EP in late August, Douglas and the Furs are prepared to get as loud as they need to be to reach your ears.

Hindu Pirates, out of Huntington Beach, includes five young dudes (all 18 to 21), who are fusing garage rock and blues...definitely in a similar vein as Fidlar, Allah-Las, The Soft Pack and Surfer Blood. They have all been friends since high school ( which was only about 3 years ago for most of them), where they also launched the band as well. The band has received great support from Hurley (4-son
g EP + performing at the upcoming US Open of Surfing with Grouplove and White Arrows). Recently, the guys opened for Delta Spirit and Tijuana Panthers at The Observatory, and have also performed with Allah-Las, Har Mar Superstar, JJMAZ, Gantez Warrior and many other local standouts at well-known venues in OC and LA
