Sea Fever

The local indie-pop outfit Sea Fever is a young band, but they’ve already endured enough rock-and-roll style drama to last them a few years. Formed at SPU by vocalist/guitarist Andrew Zook and bassist Chris Hanson, Sea Fever has undergone some shifts and losses in their lineup, including their former drummer, who was arrested and jailed in Kitsap County last fall under multiple allegations of providing alcohol to underage females and statutory rape. In their current incarnation, the band played this year’s Sound Off! but didn’t move past the semi-finals. Sea Fever isn’t letting it hold them back though. They’ve played such major venues as the Moore and just recorded their first single, “Born In Spain,” an animated pop song driven by saccharine vocal harmonies. And come on, we all know this – what’s the music business without a scandalous setback or two? ERIN K. THOMPSON
