about

Tiger Waves know the tyranny of distance, and they seemed to have tamed it for their purposes. In the spring of 2011, the foundation was laid online between two songwriters—James Marshall in Austin, Reid Comstock in Chicago. 


Tiger Waves is a band born of dropboxes, email attachments and CD-Rs and while the two principal songwriters living 1,000 miles apart, it isn’t surprising that the music took on the expanses of the information highway during it’s travels back and forth between the city of Big Shoulders and the Live Music Capital of the World. The tunes have no blank spots or rests but instead expand and contract in a thrilling, enchanting pulse with Reid Comstock’s whispers and strained notes cutting through the mix like a depressed, Beach Boys cast-off in the middle of a hyperactive beach party.

The music, however, isn’t necessarily the cold, detached product of two kids with MacBooks. It sounds more like a bit of cosmic sunshine-pop-flavored zeitgeist made by two music fans with some digital constraints and liberties. And one of them is a philosopher, sometimes you can totally tell.

After Reid relocated to Austin, the duo expanded into a quintet—adding the guitar virtuosity and songwriting prowess of a young Tyler Wharen, the steady bass of Bowie-lookalike Kevin Brown, and the multi-instrumental skills of PJ Theberge.

Track Name: It Could Never Stop
The weather’s colder now; these hats and jackets try to keep us warm
And I will disappear, when you are here, we’re falling out of form
And we’ll just let it be, between you and me, we’re waiting out the storm

And you will find us unequivocally amused
Looking through windows now at what could be confused

Lighting cigarettes, on tape cassettes we play our favorite songs
Waking up at half past two again, we’ll sleep all summer long
An endless masquerade of days cascade, while waiting for the dawn

You will find us unequivocally amused
Looking through windows now at what could be confused

I will never leave you darling (I will never leave you darling)
