bedsweater is the project of two lifelong friends from the South Bay of Los Angeles, Cole Fishman and Teddy Stavropoulos. They formed bedsweater in Boston during the fall of 2021 while studying at the Berklee College of Music. Their vision for the band was to write, perform, and release music that reminded them of their home back at the beach in Southern California. Their music can be described as funky and surfy indie rock. bedsweater started performing and recording in the Boston area in 2021, playing house parties and basement shows. They soon began playing venues around Boston and other cities including New York, Los Angeles, Nashville, and San Diego. After finishing their studies in the spring of 2024, they relocated back to Los Angeles to pursue their dream of traveling the world playing music as bedsweater.
