Biography

Matthew Caws and Daniel Lorca met in high school and play around NYC in a few short-lived bands, eventually forming a trio they call Nada Surf. Ira Elliot (Fuzztones legend) came in a little later, and in 1995 the band teamed with Elektra and later Ric Ocasek, who produced their debut LP, High/Low. The album sold nicely because of a little song called “Popular” that became a hit on MTV. Nada Surf toured a bunch and in 1998 recorded The Proximity Effect. The band hit it big in Europe before finally making waves Stateside in 2003 with their sophomore album.
