Cleveland sextet Seafair promised to deliver two EPs this year, and they’re making good on their promise.
They released the first, Paintings, in May at the Grog Shop. The second, Photographs, surfaces this week, with a release show at Mahall’s.
The band’s buzz has grown to a roar this year, fueled by the new releases and their sonically expansive live shows.
Wrapping up only their second year as a band, they’ve really made their mark this year with jam-packed shows at events like Brite Winter Fest and the Heights Music Hop, where eager fans were rewarded with the band’s trademark wall of symphonic sound, with cellist Tara Hanish and violinist Andrea Belding layering strings on top of the bedrock sound provided by guitarist Joshua Riehl and Mike Flahery and drummer Ryan Kelly.
Vocalist/keyboard player/frontwoman Chayla Hope soars over the triumphant blend with her intense, striving vocals.
If you like big, ambitious rock and roll that makes you feel like the room is levitating, chances are you’ll love Seafair. This is a great time to check out this band, which is bound to make even more waves in 2014.
Filmstrip and Texas Plant open the show. There’s a special Seafair Dance Party DJ set to wrap the night after the bands have played.
Tickets are $10, which includes a free EP. If you ordered an EP during their Kickstarter campaign, you pay only $5 at the door.
