Surfer Girl
Bio
Led by the magnetic Carter Reeves, former frontman of breakout hip-hop/pop outfit Aer, Surfer Girl delivers the soundtrack to a carefree, sun-soaked life. Hailing from Wayland, MA but deeply rooted in laid-back coastal culture, the band blends indie-pop, reggae, surf-rock, and hip-hop into a seamless high-energy sound.
Surfer Girl has built a global community drawn to breezy anthems, crisp production, and uplifting energy. Now the band is stepping into its boldest chapter yet with Midnight, their forthcoming full-length album arriving August 21. The rollout just hit a new peak with "Smoked Out," a single featuring Wiz Khalifa built on an old-school-style Wiz beat that puts Carter's rapping front and center, a marquee moment that signals the scale of what's coming.
"Smoked Out" joins a run of Midnight singles that have already showcased the band's expanding range. Chestnut Hill is a nostalgic, textured nod to roots and reflection. Lose Touch blends groove-heavy production with emotional honesty and a driving rhythmic pulse. Slow Motion is an easygoing, sunlit track reminding listeners to enjoy the ride. Wear It Out is a hook-driven, upbeat cut about the fondness for a favorite person, felt even in something as simple as wearing their clothes. Eavesdrop taps into a classic, SoCal-produced sound that makes listeners want to hop in a lowrider and drive down the coast. Together, the singles balance mature instrumentation with sharp hooks, reinforcing the band's ability to lock into a pocket and ride it out. The Wiz Khalifa feature makes clear Surfer Girl is reaching further than ever for Midnight.
Midnight follows 2025's acclaimed full-length Sunset, which featured an all-star lineup including Bryce Vine, Collie Buddz, Emily Brimlow, and more, and set the stage for this next evolution.
The band has deepened their reputation for performances that feel both nostalgic and refreshing. Through headphones on a quiet beach or caught up in the middle of a roaring festival crowd, the band delivers a masterclass in musical versatility. They have performed to crowds across the country, including standout sets at Tortuga Music Festival in Fort Lauderdale, BeachLife Festival in Redondo Beach, and Vans Warped Tour in Long Beach and Orlando.
