We all know the story. A few kids from a small town, all musically apt and naturally gifted join forces and take over the world. This just might be the case for the four young men of Perfecto para maรฑana who are aiming for the stars and smashing each one down with a baseball bat. The Washington / Seattle based Reggae, Rock, and Punk band are comprised of Turner Williams (Lead Vocals/Guitar), Morgan Williams (Bass), Justin Dobbelaar (Drums), and finally Joe Sunderland (Vocals/Guitar), a 6’7 lovable creature who writes the majority of the incredible lyrics you’ll hear in the band’s music. I had the pleasure of interviewing Justin Dobbelaar, the band’s drummer on what to expect out of them.
Made up of a self-paying group of guys in their early twenties, these boys are still booking many of their gigs at the same places they started out in. In fact, this Friday, March 9th, they’ll be playing at the very first place they ever played, Loco Billyโs in Stanwood, WA.
Turner (guitarist and lead singer) and Morgan (Bass) are brothers with an ace in their pocket. The young brotherโs musical parents just happen to have owned a music recording studio for quite some time (jealous yet? Me too!). This played a huge part in making the band’s impressive, professionally mixed dirty, garage-esque sound.
โ2018 is the year of the underground sceneโ Dobbelaar exclaims in excitement. He begins to unwaveringly explain their goal to show the people, the fans and other bands out there that you do not always need to โPay out the ass to make musicโ. โAll you need is a garage or a basement, some good friends and a shit ton of foamโ – I didnโt ask about the foam.

Their main goal other than personal growth, health and success is to see others flourish!
One of the biggest influences is Ted Bowne de Pasafuego. Bowne saw the group’s potential and with the money they had made from their CD release party, they funded a trip to St. Petersburg, FL this past January so that Bowne could record and produce the new song โShallow Watersโ which will be out on iTunes, Spotify, Google Play and more on April 6th. Passafireโs frontman was also featured on the track โStonedโ on their Album Ocean Dr. back in 2017. These tracks were, again, recorded at the familyโs studio. I predict many more collaborations with these bands.
Another huge big up I have to give to these old souls in young bodies is getting a feature track with Casey Sullivan, formally of the California band Seedless. The guys flew Sullivan up for a few days and the song โShelterโ was born in Turner and Morganโs dadโs studio.
Perfect By Tomorrow are set to headline one of their first festivals in Pasco, WA at the Columbian Basin Rock Fest on April 21st. They will also be joining my Florida jam-fam Kashโd Out, Seranaciรณn y Tunnel Vision at The High Dive in Seattle on April 14th.
