Heard on the show
Marlin's Dreaming are an indie/psych surf-rock band from Dunedin, New Zealand, formed after singer-songwriter Semisi and guitarist Tim met at Hydro Surf, the local surf shop where Semisi worked. Their debut album, Lizard Tears (2017), which includes 'Floating,' was produced by Justyn Pilbrow (known for his work with The Neighbourhood) and mixed by Jeff Ellis, whose credits include Frank Ocean and Kali Uchis - serious outside ears for a young New Zealand band's first record. A genuinely charming detail: the band's jam room looks out over a beach, and Semisi has credited that view with shaping their sparkling, laid-back sound. They followed Lizard Tears with a second album, Quotidian, in April 2020.
