BEACH PATROL "RIDING DINOSAURS" LP OUT SOON!!
"The music of Beach Patrol is timelessly catchy pop/rock, distinguished not just by style but also by some of the finest songwriting exhibited in years. These are songs you like after one listen, love after five listens, and can't live without after 20 listens"

" (...) I mean, Green Bay has always been a city that digs good power-pop/pop-rock type stuff, it's just that the bands from around here have never really figured out how to actually play the shit (unless i am merely projecting my own fondness of/incompetence in the genre on the city as a whole) (and, believe you me, 'whole' is the correct term). Enter Beach Patrol!"
Rev. Norb - RAZORCAKE
"There's something really refreshing about seeing a group of young, talented people pursuing their dreams instead of allowing themselves to be co-opted by the so-called "American Dream" of corporate enslavement and permanent indebtedness. These three young men from Wisconsin have dedicated themselves, instead, to the very noble cause of ripping good pop/rock'n'roll, the likes of which many a band attempts to achieve but few of whom succeed at. Nick Marcantonio, Jeff VanDreel and Preston Ely have produced one firecracker of a debut disc, drawing on a variety of influences (Beatles, Elvis Costello, Figgs) while also establishing their own personality and sound. No small feat, that. Witty, well constructed lyrics; catchy melodies; jumpin' old school rock'n'roll; youthful energy. It doesn't get much better than this"

"Beach Patrol is one of those bands that doesn't come along very often. Talented well beyond their years, the young Green Bay trio may just be one of the best underground rock 'n' roll bands kickin' around right now that no one knows about... yet"
