LOSING COMPOSURE from Transfer on Vimeo.

Transfer, the latest band to carry the coveted indie-torch of San Diego’s venerated rock scene, will release their new three song single on iTunes on November 23rd and will support this single with ten dates on the road opening for Brandon Flowers of the Killers.

The Losing Composure single is currently available now for a limited time with a free download on the bands website – www.transferband.com

Childhood friends Jason Cardenas and Matthew Molarius formed this rock band, along with Shaun Cornell and Andy Ridley. Drawing inspiration from the 60s Brit rock scene ala Zeppelin, Beatles, Floyd - Transfer crafts a sound of their own that nods to said classic rock luminaries but also carries a contemporary zeal that resurrects the thoughtful sentiments of My Morning Jacket, Band of Horses, Kings of Leon, and Arcade Fire.

Footnoting recent UK tour dates with Brandon Flowers,Transfer has been receiving incredible attention in the United Kingdom with at least two significant press pieces coming out this December. One is a Q Magazine feature entitled “Faces for 2011” in which Transfer is selected as one of the best new bands for the coming year. Clash Magazine will also highlight the band in their December, “Ones to Watch” feature, also selecting Transfer as the premiere American band to watch in 2011.
