[vimeo 45332697 w=500&h=280]

Having released a slew of stellar singles over the past 12 months or so, By The Sea‘s forthcoming debut album has become quite easily one of my most eagerly awaited records of the year.

The Wirral 6-piece’s album, recorded with Bill Ryder-Jones, is done and dusted and expected sometime in October. October may be some while off but fear not, By The Sea have released a sparkling video for their latest single ‘Dream Waters’. It is the perfect partner for this beautiful song which slowly builds through a glistening haze of breezy washed-out sounds.

‘Dream Waters’ is released via The Great Pop Supplement on 10 September with By The Sea playing Liverpool’s The Kazimier on 31 August.

By The Sea – Dream Waters

By The Sea have impressed a hell of a lot over the past 12 months with a steady stream of stellar singles already under their belt. It looks set to get even better with news that their debut LP, Dream Waters, is to be released soon.

The Wirral 6-piece’s album was recorded and mixed by Bill Ryder-Jones and ‘Dream Waters’ is the first taste of what we can expect. ‘Dream Waters’ has something of a mystical wondrous quality. Starting slowly it builds through the haze, transporting you on a melodious journey of breezy washed-out sounds.

A wonderful track from a wonderful band. Things are looking good for their debut album.

Free Music: By The Sea – Waltz Away

Wirral 6-piece By The Sea were introduced on the blog earlier in the year and coming from arguably one of the richest veins of musical talent in the world, Merseyside, their prodigious talent is no surprise at all.

Earlier this month they released 7″ single Waltz Away. With the advent of all 300 numbered singles being sold the generous folks from By The Sea decided to make it available for free digitally.

‘Waltz Away’ and b-side ‘Stay Where The Sun Is’ are shimmering indie gems, like their predecessors, they are steeped in 60′s psychedelia channeling parts The Byrds, The Coral and Shack into a blend of lush breezy harmonies and summertime haziness.

With By The Sea continuing to impress let’s hope 2012 is a very productive year for the band. You can download both tracks below or from BandCamp.

There’s is shimmering heart warming indie-goodness. Steeped in 60′s psychedelia they channel in very different ways parts The Byrds, The Coral and Shack with a joyous amalgam of lush breezy harmonies and summertime haziness.
