Desert Sea the band is about as elusive as the Desert Sea itself. The meaning behind the name genuinely reflects the energy and conception of the band. Formed two years ago by original founding members vocalist/guitarist Bob D. and bassist Sean McAllister, Desert Sea's creation was as unlikely as an ocean in the midst of the barren desert.
"It wraps up the idea of us pretty well, like pieces of a puzzle that you didn't think were going to fit," explains McAllister.
On Saturday night at Reflections, these unlikely pieces will come together to blast your ears back to the psychedelic sounds of a more revolutionary time.
Desert Sea is not composed of lifelong friends, but rather chance meetings through various projects, which has allowed them to bring all sorts of different ideas and sounds to the table. The Boston/New Hampshire based four-piece each have their own dynamic taste in music. Bob D. enjoys 1960's pop, psychedelic, and garage music, McAllister revels in the sounds of Black Flag, Black Sabbath, Yes, and the Zombies, and drummer Brian Donovan enjoys the Melvins, The Police, Mitch Mitchell, and Bernard Purdie. Completing the outfit, newly added guitarist Ryan Z. enjoys the licks and passion of all of the "guitar gods," as well as the robust energy of some beloved Irish drinking songs.
Together they create a sound comparable to that of Dinosaur Jr. and the Clash getting drunk on life and cheap wine while jamming to David Bowie. Can't hear it yet? You won't, unless you hear it firsthand.
According to Desert Sea, they have been playing music for "38 years in total" and some of the major forces behind their methodical musical madness include "nature, pets, other people, the world, and walking around." They describe their sound as "big psychedelic pop, melody/noise freak-outs," as well as "flowers and feedback."
After listening to tracks like "Academy Leader," "Soaked and Glowing," and "New Lawnmower," the impression that Desert Sea emanates is that of a uniquely and unexplainably workable collective, a union that seems as unlikely as a rose growing out of the sand, or an ocean overrunning the desert. Unlikely, but not impossible -- and Saturday night, Desert Sea will show you just how well the most unlikely of people and circumstances can create a refreshing oasis in a sea of salt.
-The Lowell Sun/Jillian Locke
"Desert Sea of Boston / N.H. feature members of The Young Idea, a band that exploded a few years ago onto the DIY scene with an MC5-like energy. The boys have toned down the backflips and drum-breaking, but not the quality of their music. Washy pop-rock to straight up jams. Fans of Mittens, Mates of State, and similar styles should get down with Desert Sea without much effort. "
