About Me

The Eastern Sea is a type of music about things.
Out now! The Eastern Sea self-titled EP!
Get it at Waterloo Records and Cheapo Discs!

The Eastern Sea - "Austinites who played their indie pop beautifully but also with a sharp wit and good humor. When guitarist Matt Hines put his tongue in his cheek and made with the guitar theatrics you weren't sure whether to laugh or to give him the Dio devil sign. All band silliness aside - they played some great songs that kept me from observing my bed time. Well done lads; come on back to Houston anytime." -Ramon Medina of www.theskyline.net
KVRX review of The Eastern Sea's self-titled EP - "This is the Eastern Sea’s first release as a full band, but they’ve long been a project of Matt Hines, a creative writing major matriculating at our neighbor to the south, St. Ed’s. Keep this in mind while listening to their songs- richly melodic and full of vivid storytelling. Matt’s real gift is his ability to capture those little, fleeting feelings that permeate throughout our everyday lives. There’s a range of emotions, from the haze of a night of intoxication (track 3 “The Floor”), to the feeling of wonder and possibility that spring up from exploring new places (track 2 “The Menu”). The band really shines on “The Snow” (track 4) as their harmonies rise and crash like the froth and waves of their titular vastness. Some of the songs may cast a dark pall, but the theme of hope springs eternal. (Whew….most intense review ever. Just play it.)"
