Southern California based indie rock band, Lavalove, have announced details surrounding their sophomore album. The band will release TAN LINES on April 3 through Pure Noise Records. They also share the lead single and music video for “Sniffin’ Around’ which can be heard here and seen below.
“We wanted to write a song that just felt nostalgic and easy to dance to, even with darker themes,” says singer and guitarist Tealarose Coy. “The music and background vocals are very much “California Cheerleading” but the lyrics are about murdering your cheating boyfriend. It dives into the idea of letting your paranoia take control. We loved the idea of leaving it open ended how the story actually goes but naturally agreeing with the narrator. We support women’s rights and wrongs!”
Lavalove have never been interested in asking for permission. Crashing the party has always felt like the better option, whether carousing through the Southern California bar scene, pushing back against expectation, or chasing the glow of new love. That spirit of escapism sits at the core of TAN LINES, a record rooted in the belief that a brighter, freer life might be just one perfect night away.
Produced by Anton DeLost (State Champs, The Warning), TAN LINES channels the unfiltered thrill of an endless summer into a SoCal surf-meets-indie rock statement that feels both timeless and immediate. Drawing from the simplicity of ’60s pop and surf while filtering it through modern indie, garage rock, and psych-pop textures, the album bursts with effortless melodies, punchy rhythms, and a confident, sun-soaked energy.
