Formed by Bob Weston (Shellac, Mission of Burma, Volcano Suns), Chris Brokaw (Codeine, Come, Pullman), and Elisha Weisner (Kahoots), The Martha’s Vineyard Ferries have been crafting their signature sound since their 2010 In the Pond EP (Sickroom). Their debut album, Mass. Grave (Kiam/Africantape), was released in 2013, followed by their 2021 sophomore album Suns Out Guns Out (Ernest Jenning). They will continue their sporadic touring and recording schedule forever.
WET TUNA was formed for all beings. legendary DJ/HEAD jeff conklin says "revel in the earth/space magic!” Their new record is called “VAST”. Matt “MV” Valentine with Jim Bliss & Erika Elder are the triad. They specialize in homegrown dubwise song exploration.
There are 4 wet tuna studio LP’s and a double LP boot in the UK. If you really DIG you will find handmade things & streams, loads…7 inches, cassettes, cds on various labels as well as private press action on the mv & ee cottage run child of microtones which they’ve been operating since 1999. it’s out there, you just have to see/hear.

Nearly a decade into their sonic trans-dimensional sojourn, Wet Tuna’s Vast, slingshots us sidelong toward the very heart of the Tunaverse — a place where the bass is deep and the vibes flow free down that shimmering stretch of good ol’ astral highway. With this installment of the Lagniappe Sessions, Matt Valentine, Erika Elder, and Jim Bliss serve up a dubbed out Spectrasound love letter to the glorious fuzz’n’scuzz of yesterday’s underground. The Tuna guide us on a rural glam walking tour of downtown NYC with an ever-unfolding take on Lou Reed’s “Walk On the Wild Side,” an exploration of “Cortez the Killer” that detours into Daydream-era Sonic Youth, nods to venerable free folk progenitors Pearls Before Swine and Sandy Bull, and a glacially resplendent meditation on The Jesus and Mary Chain’s “Just Like Honey” that’s basically psychoactive. Many wonders abound here, so get in there and touch the sound!
