BIO:
Topanga is Stefan Babcock, Nestor Chumak, Zack Mykula and Steve Sladkowski: four childhood friends that write irresistibly catchy, riff-heavy songs dripping with energy and wrapped in the essence of youth.
High-on-life and ambitious-as-hell, these youngsters spent 2011 gaining a reputation for their rambunctious live shows complete with explosive gang vocals, airtight hooks and unbridled enthusiasm.
Their latest offering, 7” Oceans, was produced by Jon Drew (Tokyo Police Club, Arkells, f*cked Up) and is available from Royal Mountain Records February 15, 2012.
Oceans follows a stellar 2011 for Topanga, during which the band rocketed from its first show to spots at Pop Montreal, NXNE, CMW and dates with Parlovr, Young Rival, The Darcys and more.
All that - plus a scrappy 4 song EP the band floated online – grabbed the attention of both Drew and Hollerado, with the latter taking the band out on its recent winter tour and agreeing to release Oceans on its burgeoning label.
They know what so many others are about to find out: Topanga is too good a time to miss.
