When Tides Collide

This project was started many years ago by myself (Carlos R. Andujar) with the intention of creating music, sound, or noise for the sole purpose of sleep accompaniment. As time passed the elements coalesced and transformed into an amalgam wrought from various musical influences and elements ranging from ambient drones, texture loops, hints of melancholy folk, indie rock, and pop.



When Tides Collide has materialized in a variety of fashions throughout the years and encourages the "collective" mentality, allowing whomever is interested in performing in the live setting to do so. The cast continues to revolve, and the music continues to flow.



In the past, When Tides Collide has had the honor of sharing the stage with some pleasant folks such as:



Early Day Miners (Secretly Canadian/Western Vinyl)

One Hand Loves the Other (Stickfigure Records)

the Dead Science (Absolutely Kosher Records)

World Leader Pretend (Warner Brothers Records)

Solid Pony (Bakery Outlet Records)

Emperor X (Discos Mariscos)

Bernard (Floodgate/Atlas Records)

Jason Choi and the Sea (Atlas/Team Grizzly Records)

Warren Hixson (Arkain Records)

Christina Wagner (Arkain Records)



"For those who remember When Tides Collide from when it was just Carlos Andujar and his guitar, you'll be happy to know he's made a triumphant return to Tampa, but this time he's added a few musically talented friends to the mix."

REAX Magazine / Concert Review



".This is a sweet and calming dreamy record, that gets better as it progresses. Deftly picked reverbed banjo, slide guitars, emotive pianos and whispered vocals calm me somehow even after my 5th cup of espresso. This record has the earnest tonality of true confessions and insecure desires."

- George Shaw
