Link: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/music_blog/2011/01/on-eve-of-co-headlining-tour-wavves-nathan-williams-interviews-best-coasts-bethany-cosentino.html Best Coast and WAVVES are both alternative celebrity fuzzy buzzy bands who are in a relationship (might not actually be in a relationship) but they are on tour 2gether just to capitalize on the meme that is their relationship. I haven’t...
Link: http://www.mexicansummer.com/bestcoastpreorder/ Best Coast has a new album that is ‘available for pre-order’, and the header image of the website is ‘displayed above.’ Upon closer inspection, u notice that there is a custom CD-R hanging on the wall. If you analyze the handwritten text on the CD, you will see that it says, “I LOVE YOU XO NW”, which we...
wavves WAVVES is in the midst of his (their) first ever European tour, and our good friend Pete Ohs is along for the ride, shooting for some secret upcoming film project he’s working on. Pete is also documenting Nathan Williams’ trip for us via Polaroid machine; here are some of his shots from the first leg of the month-long tour: digging in prague live in dublin a list, by...
Wavves’ Nathan Williams may be as famous for his meltdowns and fisticuffs as he is for bleary garage rock, but hey–music’s our messiest form of entertainment and Williams always brings it! New single “King Of The Beach” is a maturation of sound, but it still rides the smashy-smashy bent, bleached riffs, and sunset melody that made Wavves great in the first place....
When is the best time to release a new video? When everyone is talking about you right? Who cares what they’re saying…as long as they’re saying something.

Wavves is the name given the lo-fi grunge pop adventures of Nathan Williams, that handsome albeit concerned gentleman sitting on his bed. A Seinfeld-loving, skateboard-obsessed San Diegan, Mr. Williams handcuffs the muddied guitar blues of early 90s jamhounds like Smashing Pumpkins and Sonic Youth to the honeycombed harmonies of 60s girl groups like the uh, Ronettes. In addition to both sides of...
Just two days before he was supposed to take the stage at New York’s Bowery Ballroom, his first performance since Primaveragate made him more of a weird indieweb celebrity/whipping boy than most thought possible, Wavves’ Nathan Williams shattered his wrist while skateboarding. He played the show in a cast and he played the Pitchfork Festival the same way. Both sets were rad. When he...
