Late last year, we reviewed the album "Restraint" by Seattle Washington post punk pop threesome Orca Team. The much loved band broke up and it came to our attention back in January that front man Leif Anders had formed another band called "Week of Wonders" trading his fluid bass work for solid guitar lines that can be trancy and translucent one minute and erupt into bright bursts of sound the next. "Week of Wonders" calls what they do "tropical punk" and there are a fair share of Caribbean and South American rhythms but the punk pop (imbued with a late 60's aesthetic) is still there all rolled up into a potent and dancey sound.
They are heading on tour in May and luckily for us So Cal residents, they are snaking their way down to LA.
Check out their Bandcamp, some videos and go see them in a town near you!
