Columbus'd the Whim

VINYL FORMAT. THIS PRE-ORDER IS EXCLUSIVE TO INSOUND! On limited edition 180 gram black vinyl out of 200 copies! Summer is no myth. It exists year round on Holiday Shores Ct - a two-block stretch on the Florida panhandle where twenty-one year old Nathan Pemberton grew up. It's no more than five minutes from white sand beaches, squawks of seagulls, and wafting smells of suntan lotion.

Columbus'd the Whim is the first full-length album from Pemberton's Holiday Shores, who, like the street that bears their name, are quintessentially summer: chimey guitars, reverb-soaked vocals, warbling Rhodes, echoes of years past.

The album, packed with ten could-be singles, reads like a book of Pemberton's well-written memories. Each word chosen meaningfully with a linguist's touch; each sentence constructed carefully with an artist's ear. Columbus'd the Whim is a literary work in addition to a sonic one.

The band's current line up, comrpised of friends and roommates, spent months recording together in Pemberton's living room, obsessing over vintage gear and perfecting their captivating hooks, heart-warming melodies, and creating a haunting tunnel of sound as a stunning backdrop.
