Happy Diving “Big World” LP

Listening to East Bays Happy Diving its hard to believe that theyve only been together since 2013. A year ago, friends Matt Berry, Samuelito Cruz, Mikey Rivera, and Matt Yankovitz decided to form a band after previous projects fell apart. Since then theyve been busy making music that fans of Tony Molina, Connecticuts Ovlov and early Weezer can appreciate.

Their debut full-length, Big World was recorded over a whirlwind two days at The Atomic Garden in East Palo Alto, CA, with the help of producer Jack Shirley (Deafheaven, Joyce Manor, Whirr). Big World sees the band channeling the energy first displayed on their Self-Titled EP, as well as their deafening and vivacious live shows, into ten concise, sludgy pop songs. We recommend you listen to this album while road tripping across the country, but if you dont have the time to pack up your cares and get away, Big World fits perfectly into a 30 minute lunch break.
