Led by former Sunday Driver (Doghouse Records) singer and guitarist Alex Martinez, the initial sessions for 'A Perfect Sea For Drowning' began in late 2012 in Nashville, TN with friends and some of the city's finest studio players. Alex locked in what was the core lineup of Sunday Driver - Charlie Suarez (Guitar, Vocals) who had just finished his vocal and guitar duties in MonstrO (Vagrant Records) along with bassist Arnold Nese to record 2 new songs ("The Mermaid and The Man" and "The Prisoner's Dilemma") to tape with producer Paul Trust (Say Anything, Diecast) in his South Florida studio - along with Sunday Driver's final drummer, Mark Annino. Jose Pena (formerly of Lil Daggers) is currently the band's full time drummer. "A Perfect Sea For Drowning" was produced by sound sleeper + Paul Trust, recorded by Paul Trust and Mark Annino, mixed by C.J. Ridings (Big Jesus, Stallone) and mastered by Dan Coutant (Jawbox, The Gaslight Anthem, Into It. Over It.).
