The band's first full length album, "Freedom Wind," was released in May, 2008, by Dead Oceans records and received critical acclaim, as well as sync opportunities in film and television.

Their second album, Grand Hotel, released in early 2012, moved them out of Beach Boys sound-alike status and married their surf sounds with a playful/respectful homage to legends like Burt Bacharach, Neil Diamond and The Grass Roots.

A third album, Together, was issued in 2015 and continued to deliver a "firmly rooted in the styles of the late 60's/early 70's.

In 2019, band leader Jason Brewer issued a cover of the Scott Walker classic, "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore," and announced the forthcoming release of two albums worth of material in early 2020, one being a "covers" album and the other being all original new music..

The Explorers Club Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

And I have to be in you
You would never more
Let aside to

And the shadows distant lights

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are quite vague and open to interpretation, but I'll take a stab at it. Based on the context of the song and the surrounding lyrics, my interpretation is that the singer is expressing the feeling of being deeply connected to someone else, to the point where they feel like they are part of that person. The line "And I have to be in you" suggests a desire to be physically and emotionally intertwined with this other person. The following lines, "You would never more / Let aside to," could be interpreted as a fear that the other person may try to push them away or distance themselves, but the singer is confident that this won't happen because of their strong connection.

The final line, "And the shadows distant lights," is a bit more mysterious, but could be interpreted as a recognition that there will always be dark times or obstacles ahead, but that they will be able to overcome them together. Overall, the lyrics seem to express a profound sense of love and intimacy between two people.
