The Lagoons: “Give It Up For Love” [PREMIERE]

By: Jack Anderson

What first began as a fraternal bond evolved over time into a jazz band camaraderie, and in 2019 multi-instrumentalist brothers Ryan and Joey Selan are aligned once again as The Lagoons. This L.A.-bred Austin-based duo takes the best bits from classic rock, pop, & funk and interjects those tones into the modern landscape not only as musicians, but waist-deep as producers and recording engineers as well.

Today The Lagoons break another barrier of time and genre with an inlet of ’70s-inspired sounds, heard here for the first time ever:  “Give It Up For Love”!
