  • Bio

    A Pacific Model is a four piece experimental/ambient rock band from the great state of Texas. Created in 2003 by Singer and Songwriter, Daniel Hazelwood, the band has seen a few variations of faces on both drums and guitars. The line-up is complete now, with Daniel, Sam, Patrick and Adam. A Pacific Model has had a great year thus far, from solidifying their line-up to recording and releasing their debut album, Divisions. Currently the band is promoting Divisions through intimate and engaging live performances, which has awarded them a very loyal and ever-growing fanbase...To get your own copy of Divisions, click the banner below and it'll transfer you to PayPal.

"It seems somewhat appropriate that A Pacific Model hails from Texas. With their home state of Texas being so gargantuan it only makes sense that A Pacific Model's sound is pastoral and expansive.
