On Saturday, March 24, 2012, Nada Surf drove in to the magical city of Seattle, WA in the midst of a US tour in support of the album The Stars Are Indifferent to Astronomy and set up their gear at the Neptune Theatre. Days before, the band’s friend and producer John Goodmanson (Lucky, Sleater Kinney, Death Cab For Cutie) shared some insider information with the band about the venue: he happened to know that all the microphone wires in the Neptune went into a splitter box and a whole extra set headed down to the basement, which made it a perfect venue to set up gear to record a show. Would they like him to do that? The answer was yes! So after an extra long soundcheck to make sure everything was working, they took a break, and later that night took the stage to play a long rocking set. The band recently re-listened to the show and it sounded so good that they’ve decided to make it available to their fans. It’s only their second live album, after 2004’s Live In Brussels.

Live At The Neptune Theatre is available exclusively through PledgeMusic for a limited period of time in a limited edition, deluxe LP package or digitally. The special LP package contains ‘souvenirs’ from the Seattle gig including the original show poster, a photo booklet from the performance and so much more.

We’ve estimated the deluxe LP package will ship in early 2016, but when you order the package you won’t have to wait for the music as you will immediately receive a digital download of the show.
