Throughout the album, this band boasts a celebratory sound, a reckless sense of ecstasy specific to fluid youth and rock solid friendship. In spite of life's bits that inspire these songs - some darker than others - Repasky, Geeslin, DeLurgio, and Dowd reliably find the light in the thing. Drawing from early influences like Rilo Kiley and Tame Impala, and landing a little closer to contemporary favorites like Alvvays and Slow Pulp, Lunar Vacation make bright music replete with bliss. Repasky suggested the band name Lunar Vacation to Geeslin at a show, leaning over at a loud moment to say it. It's easy to imagine others finding out about the band in this same way.
