With all three members bringing something unique to the bands sound and after only a couple months of writing and recording at Walkers home studio The Holy Coast played their first show in May 2013 opening for Mike Simonetti (Italians Do It Better) and Plastic Plates where the band enjoyed a very warm response from the large Phoenix audience.

While continuing throughout the year writing and playing more shows along side Slow Magic, Superhumanoids and French Horn Rebellion the band began to play more and more arounf Phoenix.

In January 2014 the band recorded 5 songs at Flying Blanket Recording in Mesa, Arizona gaining the attention of Common Wall Media who agreed to release The Holy Coast EP.

The band were honored when Andy Rourke of The Smiths announced he was a fan and agreed to have his project, Jetlag NYC, remix the track “The Highest Love”. The outcome is a haunting nod to the Manchester hay days of the Hacienda.
