Music: Weird Dreams

Weird Dreams make sweetly melodic guitar-pop with a gritty aftertaste. After meeting at work in 2010 among the Hawaiian shirts and kitchy curios of a vintage store, Doran and drummer Craig instantly bonded over a love for ’60s girl groups, David Lynch and The Beach Boys. A few months and one warped pop song about “a happy little masochist” later, and Weird Dreams had been startled into life.

Recent 7” ‘Holding Nails’ is a lilting off-kilter slice of Twin Peaks pop, which owes as much to the gloomy guitar jerk of Dinosaur Jr. as the psych and soul-tinged ’60s pop of The Tammys and The Cookies.

Now they are preparing their debut LP for release sometime in February 2012.
