There’s nothing like that surfer vibe.

Imagine sitting on the beach, the sun is setting, and beside you, there is a charismatic guy with a guitar, playing an indie-folk ballad.

Sean Koch is a leading voice in surf-inspired music. He is strongly supported by the surf community, including professional surfers like Jordy Smith and Mikey February. Together with friends, he spent a lot of time with his guitar on the beaches, living his surfing dream. In fact, most of the songs from his debut album Your Mind is A Picture (2019) were written on the beach, followed by the 2022 album Subtle Affection. As a singer and songwriter, he blends influences from folk, ambient, surf music, and reggae.

• Signed to Jeremy Loops` label Tic Tac Bang, he has reached over 300k monthly listeners.
• He has played over 150 sold-out shows across Europe.
• His music has appeared in Netflix series and surf-themed films.
• His song “Lift You Up” has been heard by more than 121 million listeners.
• He grew up near the ocean in the village of Kommetjie, Cape Town, South Africa.

Immerse yourself in music full of sunshine. Straightforward melodies blend with meaningful, deep lyrics, and you can chill and dream along with Sean.
