The sophisticated yet innocent jangle of their debut long
player “Out of View” on the Spiritual Pajamas label is a fresh neighbor to the
trippy head music for which San Francisco is usually known. But somehow it lives quite happily in the
midst of giant Redwoods, the thick cold waters of the foggy coast, or the laid
back urgency of a late night out in the Mission with your head in the clouds. From The Fillmore, to The Whisky a Go-Go, to
The Hacienda in Manchester, the 10 songs on “Out of View” work as a sort of
View Master/Time Machine..."feels like I’ve been here before"…and you
wanna stay for a while and smile.
Terry Sowers, chief songwriter armed with his trusty
Rickenbacker 6-string and melancholy vocal/lyric delivery, powers the Light
Fantastic. Bassman Jeremy Bringetto hooks
you in with his super melodic but well-rounded bass lines while Rachel Hoiem twinkles
and pads the songs with her keyboards and harmonies. Recording mastermind Rex Shelverton and his
colorful guitar comes through like a light house in heavy fog lighting the way
for the group and Terry’s tunes to take you on a trip. This ain't what you call surf rock but you'll
find these guys out on every swell. And
if you do surf, these are the tunes that are in your head while you’re paddling
for the next wave...the next wave? LIGHT FANTASTIC
