Bodies of Water is a band from the Highland Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, signed to independent record label Secretly Canadian.

[2] Critics often compare their music to that of Ennio Morricone, Arcade Fire, The Mamas & the Papas, and label-mate Danielson.

[3] Bodies of Water's first full-length album Ears Will Pop & Eyes Will Blink was originally released on Bodies of Water's own Thousand Tongues label, and was only available in a few stores, at live shows, or directly from the band via their website.

After Secretly Canadian signed Bodies of Water, the label re-released the album nationally on January 22, 2008.

The band's second album, titled A Certain Feeling, was released July 22, 2008 to generally favorable reviews.
