Sometimes a band will come along with a series of songs that sound naggingly as though you've heard them many times before ... hazily, quietly from a nearby speaker, or lurking in the background of a movie scene. Even though you've never heard the song before, somehow it seems to be ingrained in your immediate musical vocabulary. You've always heard it, but you've never heard it. Deep Sea Diver has stumbled across this sensation. Theirs is a kind of beatific indie rock that makes a great deal of hay out of chiming guitars and the relaxed yet forceful lead vocals of Jessica Dobson. Beginning as a solo singer-songwriter in California, Dobson made the transition to a full band around 2006, adopting the title of one of her recently penned songs as the band's name.
