The Water

Editors’ Notes San Cisco sounds like a bunch of your favorite bands—if you locked them in a room with a ball pit and sugary energy drinks. The band's fluency in style—synth-pop, alt-rock, Eurodisco, R&B—fills The Water with pleasant sojourns and welcome surprises. There’s a retro Motown feel to “The Distance” and “That Boy.” And everything about “Hey, Did I Do You Wrong” and “Did You Get What You Came For” speaks to the band’s ability to ride an irresistible groove long into the sunset.
