Before the Waves

Before the Waves

Before The Waves is the debut album from Magic Man. It was produced by Alex Aldi (Passion Pit, Holy Ghost!), who also worked with the band on last year s You Are Here EP. Among the 11 tracks is their first single Paris, which Rolling Stone compares to the electric-meets-electronic sound of the Postal Service... The swirling layers of synths, which constantly rush behind Caplow's vaporous voice, give the whole track a hazy vibe. Paris spent two weeks in the #1 position on Sirius XM s Alt-18 Countdown as well.

New England-based Magic Man was started by childhood friends Alex Caplow (vocals) and Sam Vanderhoop Lee (guitars and keyboards) while they traveled abroad trading labor for room and board on a series of French organic farms, creating the music for what would become Magic Man during their travels. Now they re living a particularly lucid version of that childhood dream playing summer amphitheaters all over the country with three of their friends (Gabe Goodman on bass, Justine Bowe on keyboard and Joey Sulkowski on drums). Magic Man have recently toured with Walk The Moon, Sir Sly, MS MR, Ra Ra Riot, St. Lucia, and New Politics.
