THE TRADING POST

We are kids of the 80´s. Stuck between American pop-culture and our fathers record collections. 
Somewhere between the redwoods and the city limits, The Trading Post was born. It began as a quiet stop in the Santa Cruz mountains – a place suspended between two worlds: urbanism below and the forest above. That in-between space became our spiritual home, where harmony is right.

The Trading Post winds through the warmth of American folk and classic rock into the pink shimmering of ’80s nostalgia – a sound grounded in the analog world but enhanced in the ambience of synths and big chords. Growing up on escapism there’s a heartbeat of storytelling beneath every song, filtered through the dreamlike lens of someone forever staring into the twin sunset, always wondering what’s out there.
