In mid 2008, brothers, Nick and Chris Navarro, started writing songs for a blues band. They recorded an EP and started playing shows right away. Later that year they hooked up with drummer, Zak Parrish, and bassist, Matt Willis. Matt and Zak had formerly played together, and their history playing music together went back just as far as the Navarro brothers'. The new rhythm section gave the brothers a hard rock sound that they couldn't possibly have achieved on their own, and when the two duos got together for their first live performance as a four piece, Style Like Revelators was officially under way.
Since then, the band has played countless venues sizing up from small clubs and cafes on up to large outdoor shows and theaters. They have released their first full length album; a thirteen track LP entitled, "Changing Bones." Their current primary focus is to hit the road and promote the album as much as possible.

We are a Punk Rock Band from the Cental Coast of the Golden State of California.
This is our story...
It was years ago in Italy, a small pizza shop near the coast, a Sailor soulfully strummed his guitar under a full moons light... then, in the distance... There was a HOWL! Years later in California, a bond of friendship was created through a love for old cars and punk rock music. Soon after, a couple more were brought into the pack. Now, with the salty sea in their hearts, armed with instruments of love and hate, and a lusting hunger for blood and violence... prepare yourselves... Are you ready to Die!? Its... THE SEA WOLVES!!! be warned, OUR ROCK WILL FUCK YOU!

DIXON, MFSF, & OUTSHINED @ THE BLUE LAGOON: Monday, August 22nd
MFSF!’s debut album Guru Gaga is released on Bloat Records (home to acts like Bob Log III and Winelord) and was described by the Tucson Weekly as “being brilliant both in composition and execution—something that can easily get lost in the spectacle of Mr. Free's live performances.”The band is gearing up for a summer/fall supporting their forthcoming 7" EP, Snakes in Orifice.
OUTSHINEDDulcet Tone, Melvoy, Candysound, The Cat From Hue, & Jupiter @ THE BLUE LAGOON: Wednesday, August 24th
"...the result is a fabulously original sounding “thing” coming from these fellows. The title track [Million] was certainly one of the best songs I’ve heard this year, Crider’s Stratocaster and Fitzgibbon’s skin working like a fine oiled machine..." -Boris Budd, What's Up! Magazine (Bellingham)
"[Candysound] write almost-instantly-hummable pop songs of understated beauty that suggest immersion in the Zombies' Odessey and Oracle and some of those underrated Merge bands from the '90s, like Butterglory. Candysound's handle could lead you to expect twee OD, but thankfully they're more about nutritious fruitiness than that teeth-rotting junk." -Dave Segal, The Stranger (Seattle)
"Candysound are adorable. They're fresh-faced, mop-topped youngsters from Bellingham whose MySpace page says they've "been lucky enough to share a variety of stages with some rad bands/people including: Parenthetical Girls, Evangelicals, PWRFL Power, the Lonely Forest," and much more. So humble. Adorable! But they use their adorableness as a kind of judo to flip your expectations at every turn: When you see them take the stage, you half expect some kind of cushy, fluffy boy band that sings chaste ballads about holding hands. And then they play and it's rock that alternates from jangly, mopey heart-tugging choruses to balls-out murder riffs in the same song, and suddenly they're not adorable anymore; they're just really, really good." -Paul Constant, The Stranger (Seattle)
In 2005 Jupiter came out with their debut EP and after years of shows with bands such as Neon Trees, Fallout Boy, Rooney, Shiny Toy Guns, Kill Hannah, Metro Station and many more and multiple tours of the western United States, they decided it was time for a change. After a three year hiatus, in which the three brothers that comprise Jupiter redefined themselves both individually and musically, their debut full length album entitled Love Campaign is finished. Taking influence from Alt-Country, Rock, Folk, and Blues, Jupiter has created an album that represents their growth and progression over the past three years.

The Best Friends, Zula, Emperor X, & And Hod @ THE BLUE LAGOON: Wednesday, August 31st
-Beacon Pass
“Zula is going beyond your typical Indie synth band and tripping into the nether regions of amazing tunes not of this world.”
-The Deli
“Zula's psychedelic aspect is often secondary to the song, largely tied to how they saturate the sonic space with vocals or swells of harmonic tone.”
-Jester Jay
"Jeesus, this music is MAD sneaky"
-Tonya Harding
