The Specific Heats

Founded in Boston in 2004 by singer/songwriter/designer/actor Mat Patalano. Heavily influenced by 60s Surf, Psych-pop and Garage, the band evolved from whistful indie pop sound into a more energetic garage-pop sound over 8 years of activity, spending the last few years performing and touring mostly in the UK and Scandinavia despite being based in Brooklyn, NY and Boston, MA.
