The Canadian Sweetmen release the studio version of ‘Intro And New Cigarettes’ (MBSC003) on 03.01.19 via Matte Black Sound Company. Formed in 2015, the Austin-based band has been stockpiling home recordings and subtly psyching-out their ‘too cold to swim’ surf tones without any form of internet presence, attracting fans by word of mouth and pop-up shows.

The band consists of Connor Oakley (Rare Magic, The Two Lips), Andre Black (Two Tone Blue), and Matthew McNeal - all performing under aliases on stage. The Canadian Sweetmen were featured in Slovenian music magazine It’s Psychedelic Baby in 2016:

“Taking influence from The Beach Boys' strain of psychedelia, songsters The Canadian Sweetmen are cool, direct and adroit- trading in traditional surf tones for a more peculiar sound. Relying on malfunctioning rotor cabinets, broken organs, and countless pieces of dated sound gear, the group produces songs from an indefinite era.“
