Based out of Denver, Colorado, a shoreline dream is an experimental alternative band taking the DIY approach full force, setting up the label themselves, and taking the loan on without looking back. The sound is unique and spacious. Difficult to explain, but an “experience that never truly ends” as quoted by XLR8R Magazine in October of 2006.
