Nelson-Type is the perfect summer band. Swirling melodies, echo-laden reverberation, and dreamy indie rock with a nostalgic touch of melancholia make for the perfect warm weather experience. Just listen to "Our Summer" off their bandcamp page and you'll see what I mean. It's catchy, and beautiful; just a touch bit sad, but not wallowing in its sadness. When I listen to the band's EP, Grow Homeless, Grow Unbound, I hear a beautiful mix of Best Coast, blue-era Weezer and even some Cracker.

Nelson-Type is good. Real good. Tomorrow will be the first time I get to see the band live and I'm pretty damn stoked. As most of you know, we here at buffaBLOG will be hosting a beach party at Sunset Bay featuring the Type. The event goes all day long starting at noon and also features Canary Girls, the Tins, Aircraft, and AUTOPUNCH with set breaks by DJ Handsome Dan. $5 gets you great bands, drink specials ,and a day out to the beach What more could you ask for?
