SURFER BLOOD/GRAND RAPIDS
MUDDY WATERS, SANTA BARBARA, CA

| Surfer Blood |
Every now and then the stars align,and you stumble into a show that's too good to be true. In this case, the blessed event was Florida's
Surfer Blood, supported by NY's
Grand Rapids, in the cozy confines of Muddy Waters in Santa Barbara. Don't even want to guess at capacity, but the coffeehouse on Haley St. was packed to the gills for this sold out show, and Surfer Blood went above and beyond the call of duty, shrugging off a recent equipment heist to deliver the goods. Grand Rapids kicked things off with a thoroughly charming set, making plenty of new friends along the way. Surfer Blood then proceeded to slam their way through a raucous set, enlivened by frontman John Paul Pitts mid-set relocation on and behind the bar. Top flight band in a tiny venue-truly a memorable night.
