The Lagoons

The Lagoons are the musical project of Los Angeles-raised multi-instrumentalist brothers Ryan and Joey Selan. The duo writes, produces, and records their music out of their home studio in Los Angeles. Their unique blend of genres was first heard on their debut single “California” and was followed up by their debut Gems EP and the follow-up Escape EP. "California" has since racked up close to 60 million streams on Spotify alone and has had impressive organic synch placements in Netflix's series "Easy," a BMW/Golf Digest ad starring Kate Upton and Justin Verlander, a Seiko Australia ad, and featured on product placement in Bose stores worldwide.

Their critically acclaimed catalog has received rave reviews from tastemakers and fans. In addition to being added to hundreds of thousands of Spotify playlists including editorials such as New Music Friday, Ultimate Indie, Essential Indie, Hanging Out and Relaxing, Indie Rock Road Trip, The Ones That Got Away, Late Night Vibes, and more, The Lagoons have been featured in press outlets such as NPR, The New York Times, Paste Magazine, Earmilk, Ones To Watch, and Indie Shuffle.

The Lagoons have completed three headline tours and are becoming known for their vibrant live shows. Their versatile ability to switch between instruments as well as perform a completely fresh and different set each night makes their live show a must-see. The duo’s first album Midnight Afternoon was released in June 2020 and their sophomore album Daybreak was released in January 2022. The duo’s third EP Surf Rock was released September 2022.
