Meg, Mark, Lizzie and Glen (the Hat!) make up the remarkable alt-country/Americana project Dead Surf Country. With their vibrant and heart-warming tones and light atmospheric electronics there is so much to like about DSC. It is subtle genius. Starting as a highly talented father/daughter combination Meg (vox) and Mark (acoustic guitar) set out to write some music, Lizzie (vox) and then Glen (electric guitar) came on board in 2006, helping to make some fine music that can be supped upon via their EP Area 51 Revisited, but is best experienced sat out in the sunshine with a nice beer. 'Live music in a field with the sunshine gives a really good atmosphere and brings a community together, so it's nice!' Melodically brilliant, the acoustics are wonderful, light and free-flowing and easy on the ear, whilst providing perfect serenity for the eloquent duality of Meg and Lizzie's vocals and harmonies. 'We've started harmonising and working together on songs because before we used to try and keep our voices separate.' This is showcased in up-tempo number Lost, featuring a cool and funky electric riff complimented by fantastic harmonising from Meg (who leads this song) and Lizzie. Alongside these two very competent and sexy lead singers, the art of Dead Surf Country is provided by light, floating atmospherics from Glen's electrical input, heard on the bluesy Then I Met You and the serene and tender Crush, while the tender lullaby Hold On is a wonderful piece of music. 'We like making music and we love playing together, we just gelled when Glen came on board. Being friends makes life so much better, with lots of evenings drinking cider, making music and mucking about.' Dead Surf Country offer something completely different to your average acoustic artist.

Zak Flak blogspot 18.03.10... If you love alt country/americana then you should check out Dead Surf Country from Wales. Tender acoustic guitar combined with electric guitar riffs and Meg & Lizzie's vocals has a real American feeling for these Welsh folk. The electric guitar has a nice soaring quality and interplays with the acoustic work perfectly. Check out tunes like 'Then I Met You', 'Lost' & 'My first Trip' on their Myspace page. This is sweet chill acoustics. Gentle love poems with White Cave Receiver pushing into some spacier electronic realms courtesy of Black Mountain Transmitter. 'My First Trip' has got a nice folksy feel and the duo vocals are beautiful.
