New album ‘lost weekend’ out now!

“The Blank Tapes told us to never get old, and like any good advice, we've been trying to live it ever since, drenched in the band's laid-back, California haze. At the heart of it all is Matt Adams, a quiet storm with a head full of kaleidoscopic sounds. Adams' multi-instrumental mastery is a call to anyone looking for something smoother than a jolt. His dream mix of psych-soul, hippie funk and '60s pop has just enough fuzz to keep it from floating away.” -Las Vegas Weekly 2025

“The latest album [Lost Weekend]…is nearly 80 minutes of musical bliss, venturing through sonic journeys such as Beatles-esque sky-high psych and folk on “Dumped,” road-trip country vibes on “Is It Worth It” and Grateful Dead-inspired laid-back blues on “I’m Invisible.” - CV INDEPENDENT

“LA renaissance man Matt Adams and his latest incarnation of The Blank Tapes, who get the whole room dancing and grinning with their laidback yet crunchy rock ’n’ roll. For the uninitiated, think Loaded-era Velvets with a touch of Creedence and Quicksilver Messenger Service: simple three-chord songs played tight in the pocket with virtuoso chops.” - SHINDIG
