‘Never Not Together’ feels like an old friend open to new tricks. Familiar bittersweet flavours are sensitively tweaked but Nada Surf’s cathartic heartbursts remains in perfect harmony.” MOJO – 4 stars ★★★★
 
“What sets Nada Surf apart is the unguarded quality of singer-guitarist Matthew Caws’ songwriting, which dwells on love, friendship, and the desire for connection with a warmth and honesty that go perfectly with his melodies, steeped in the careful prettiness of the Go-Betweens and the no-frills formal consistency of Spoon.” Rolling Stone
 
“Majestic… From the moment the heartwarming jangle of ‘So Much Love’ starts this record off, these nine iridescent anthems serve to offer at least partial escape from the modern world. Matthew Caws’ deeply philosophical and moving lyrics seem to capture the very essence of life and humanity.” Record Collector – 4 stars ★★★★

“Song for Congress”

Stream/Download the track here: https://lnk.to/SongforCongress

hello friends, we have a new song to share. it’s different in its intent from anything else we’ve done and i’d like to tell you a little about it: when I read last year about the inhumane and needless separation of families at the border, i was shocked, it was almost too awful to think about. i called my representatives and left messages, but i wished there was something more i could do. a thought occurred to me: what if I could speak directly to congress through a song? i don’t write political songs often — they’re hard to pull off and can feel futile — and the idea of a senator or congressperson actually hearing it was a total moonshot, but once i had the idea i thought it was worth trying.
