Beach Goons

Hailing from San Diego's Logan Heights neighborhood, Beach Goons was the brainchild of Pablo Cervantez, the band's vocalist, guitarist, and sole constant member. Beach Goons started innocently enough with Cervantez and a couple friends picking up instruments and playing out, hitting up any place that would have them, from their middle school to Logan Heights' library. As the band grew, their sound evolved with them. Their early singles showed a brash, garage-indebted take on punk, but by the time of 'BoiSad', the edges began to smooth, and more of Beach Goons' personality began poking through. For their new album, 'hoodratscumbags', Beach Goons didn't rush things, instead spending the better part of two years workshopping the songs until they became the most potent examples of what they wanted to express.
