pure bathing culture is the portland based duo of sarah versprille (vocals, keys) & daniel hindman (bvs & guitars). stand out tracks include ‘gainesville’, inspired by the name of a town in florida &, according to sarah, “about a friend who passed away in motorcycle accident in peru who was living a pretty wild life”, & ‘ivory coast’, a “positive reflection on one's obsession with their muse - how far someone may be willing to go to be in touch with the thing they love the most".
