Coastal



I was just taking a listen to a band that I fell in love with quite a while ago.... Coastal. They have a very lowfi, shoegazer sound that would even relax a monkey on Red Bull..... find them and listen...

Josh Callaway - bass
Jason Gough - guitar, vocals
Luisa Gough - organ, vocals
Jim Harker - drums

Coastal formed in 1999 as a hybrid of several musicians who had played for years in different bands in the Provo, Utah area. Singer and guitarist Jason Gough had been involved in shoegaze style bands for several years (Lumiere, The Mantarays, Azure) and it was through such bands that he met up with bassist Josh Callaway (Just Lucy). A middle ground was sought between Jason's shoegaze and Josh's slocore leanings as the duo started to write songs together.
