Surf City (NZ)
 Surf City, Northcote Social Club, 18th February 2011 New Zealand 4 piece Surf City made the trek across the ditch and drew a good reception from the crowd at the NSC as they opened for Sydney guitar outfit Deep Sea Arcade. Well, perhaps technically a double bill, but they did play first… Seeing these guys for the first time (and hearing them only a few hours after I’d checked out their MySpace) I immediately thought ‘hey, I think they are, or were, big Pavement fans’. With a mix of guitar based sounds and some electronic sounds, they played a number of tracks from their current album Kudos. |
