A Shoreline Dream is a band combining lush sampled textures, organic instrumentation, and vocals layered like a synth similar in vein to bands such as Ride, Slowdive and Sigur Rós. Originating in Denver, Colorado they are slowly but surely rooting out to an international fan base with producers Ulrich Schnauss and Kramer from Ween / Butthole Surfers working with them on upcoming releases. When they formed in 2005 they all decided to take a stand against the restrictions of a normal label and formed their own (latenight weeknight records). Soon after they began developing strategic alliances throughout the music community. They can be best described as a band bridging the gap between post-rock and shoegaze with their ambient landscapes, vocals chanting through a radio at the bottom of a well, and one-take room recordings. The band has received many critically acclaimed reviews based on their unique ability to draw people into a trance with landscapes of sound while retaining a strong melodic and unique vocal delivery. In the Fall of 2006, a shoreline dream released their debut album "avoiding the consequences" with a full scale attack, garnering the band attention on several samplers for Landmark Theatres, Urban Outfitters, The Sundance Film Festival, Paste Magazine among others. Critics from Filter Magazine, Paste Magazine, XLR8R, Skyscraper, and Westword gave the band very high marks. The band released the EP "Coastal" in July of 2007, which has landed them spots on samplers for Vice Magazine, Paste Magazine, XLR8R, Landmark Theatres and Urban Outfitters. In September of 2007 the band toured with INNAWAY, and they are currently working on their second full length album, due to be released in 2008.
