Tiger Waves know the tyranny of distance, and they seemed to have tamed it for their purposes. In the spring of 2011, the foundation was laid online between two songwriters—James Marshall in Austin, Reid Comstock in Chicago, and within the year bandmates Tyler Wharen and Joshua Kerl joined the gang.
Tiger Waves is a band born of dropboxes, email attachments and CD-Rs and while the two principal songwriters living 1,000 miles apart, it isn’t surprising that the music took on the expanses of the information highway during it’s travels back and forth between the city of Big Shoulders and the Live Music Capital of the World. The tunes have no blank spots or rests but instead expand and contract in a thrilling, enchanting pulse with Reid Comstock’s whispers and strained notes cutting through the mix like a depressed, Beach Boys cast-off in the middle of a hyperactive beach party.
The music, however, isn’t necessarily the cold, detached product of kids with MacBooks. It sounds more like a bit of cosmic sunshine-pop-flavored zeitgeist made by music fans with some digital constraints and liberties. Read more on Last.fm.
