San Cisco have spent the last year graduating high school, performing at some festivals and playing round town pretty much every weekend. They have also produced their first EP called Golden Revolver, which is set for release early 2011. Confident with stage presence & strong with vocals, San Cisco's upbeat summer pop continues to impress.
Jordi says: "San Cisco is a place situated between reality & a dream state. It is kind of like a huge cauldron we put all our creative input into, mix it together to make a super explosion of fantastic, wild creations. This is San Cisco."

San Cisco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't get burnt put on your sun lotion
Don't get up like the haters in the back row
Kick it down in front with the lovers
They know
They know
Well don't speak a word 'bout the people that you don't like
just spread the love, it will be all right
So why would you do that, why would you do that
Just shout and just shout and just shout
They never let you out at night
(Freak out, freak out)
And when they found out you had lied
(Freak out, freak out)
They never let you out at night
(Freak out, freak out)
And when they found out you had lied
(Freak out, freak out)
Stella stole your heart when you looked her in the eye
And knew from then on she would never lie
See your life in black and white
She'll always be with you
By your side by your side
Well you tried so hard just to get by
If this was a movie you'd be flying high
All you need is a little more time
And all I need is to write one more line
One more line one more line
They never let you out at night
(Freak out, freak out)
And when they found out you had lied
(Freak out, freak out)
They never let you out at night
(Freak out, freak out)
And when they found out you had lied
(Freak out, freak out)
Why-y-y-y
You wanna be a star with the girls in the cars
And you wanna break all their hearts to run away
They never let you out at night
(Freak out, freak out)
And when they found out you had lied
(Freak out, freak out)
They never let you out at night
(Freak out, freak out)
And when they found out you had lied
(Freak out, freak out)
Well they go why why why why
