NEWS

17 years is a long time to make an EP.

Pacifico’s upcoming “‘05/‘22” EP – the title being a literal nod to the how it started / how it’s going nature of the record –arrives June 3, 2022 on the Atlanta-based artist’s own Pacifirecords.

What was the artist-in-charge, Matthew Schwartz doing during the 17 years since beginning this Pacifico release in 2005 and completing it in 2022?

He was doing Pacifico.

Huh?

Indeed, this is the story of a lost hard drive. Musicians don’t do back-ups, after all.

Teamed with Jeremiah Edmond, Schwartz’s musical cohort in 2005 just prior to Edmond joining Manchester Orchestra, the recordings that have now been realized as the “‘05/‘22” EP, out June 3, 2022.

An all-new Pacifico album is also in the works for a late 2022 release.
