Best of Bandcamp: Deep Sea Diver

Submerged yourself in super-pop melodies with Seattle's own Deep Sea Diver. This collective group of three musicians and a hodgepodge of artists creates some of the most excitable, bubbly music in the acrylic painted world.

Their song, "You Go Running", is definitely the kind of song that can take you down a forested path at a rapid heart pace. Expect foliage flying into your face as you jump over mossy, fallen trees.


"History Speaks," one of a collection of their albums, is a watercolor sketchbook you don't want to pass without giving it a quick flip through its crinkly pages. Only seven dollars on sale at their bandcamp and ten dollars in CD format, it's a price that's worth paying for. Don't forget to stop by their website to check out more tour dates and to buy tickets if you're in the area.

If you don't have the moolah to go to this year's SXSW, where Deep Sea Diver will be performing live, keep an eye out for their upcoming shows as they tour the west coast:
