Downcoast puts the “rock” in “alt-psych-surf-indie-punk-progressive rock.” No single genre bounds their abstract melting pot of influences, rendering each track an exhilarating and colorful ride from start to finish. The band prides themselves on their adventurous sonic style, often defying song structures entirely in favor of “whatever sounds best.”

The group has been playing music together for over 3 years, but according to vocalist and guitarist David Bridgeman, “We sucked for about 90 percent of that. Although who’s to say, maybe we still do…”

Known for their energetic and highly choreographed live shows, they have attracted a small but loyal following in their hometown of Boise. The band plans to release their debut EP by the end of 2020. They say of the project, “It’s been cooking for literal years, and we’ve molded these tracks to our version of perfection. We can’t wait to share this stuff with everybody!!”
