Sea Cycles

**Sea Cycles** is a Tampa-based indie/post-rock trio known for crafting lush, atmospheric soundscapes that blend math rock intricacies with shoegaze textures. Formed in the early 2010s, the band—Carson Cox (guitar/vocals), Andrew Williams (bass), and Matt Reich (drums)—built a reputation for their dynamic live shows and collaborative DIY ethos. Their sound often drifts between moody, reverb-drenched melodies and tightly coiled rhythms, creating a vibe that feels both introspective and expansive.

Over the years, Sea Cycles has released a handful of standout EPs like *Ground & Air* (2011) and *Quota* (2014), along with live sessions (including their *Audiotree Live* appearance) that capture their raw, immersive energy. Tracks like “Bet” and “Wash” showcase their knack for balancing intricate guitar work with emotive, drifting vocals, while newer releases hint at their evolving exploration of ambient and post-rock influences. Though they’ve kept a relatively low profile, their music remains a hidden gem for fans of genre-blurring, thoughtfully layered rock.
