THE ATLANTICS ON TOUR
This is for real: the legendary Atlantics from Australia will finally come to Europe for a 2 weeks tour between June and July. They got their success back in 1963 with an instrumental hit called BOMBORA, joining the rudiments of the Californian surf sound and the European influences of the Shadows. The band has always been active and producing music giving us throughout the years really incredible tunes! The guitarist Martin Cilia joined them in the 90s and since then the band has come back again strongly in the scene. We cannot wait to have them!

The tour is exclusively managed in Europe by Surfer Joe Music.
Please CONTACT US ASAP for information and to make offers: booking@surferjoe.it

Touring period: JUNE 24 - JULY 7
Link: www.theatlantics.com




HERE COMES THE INSECT SURFERS TORNADO!
Another great, incredible band from the "old & new" times. Formed officially in 1979 they have been rockin' in California since then, headed by Dave Arnson, the most un-traditional surf guitarist on the planet! Offering a show of jumps and crazy moves on stage, they really present a psychedelic set list of tunes inspired by the most classic surf music, but totally revisited in the sound and impact. If you do not know the Insect Surfers you will surely remain very impressed...

The tour is exclusively managed in Europe by Surfer Joe Music.
Please CONTACT US ASAP for information and to make offers: booking@surferjoe.it

Touring period: JUNE 24 - JULY 20

SURF MUSIC: WHAT IS IT?
Surf is generally and historically considered an instrumental music genre derived from jazz, rock 'n' roll and blues, born in southern California at the very end of the 50s and largely diffused all over the US between 1961 and 1965. The music has since then spread out anywhere and surfer joe music is just an example of how global and intense surf music's production is today with new surf bands growing and developing every year. Surfer Joe helps making surf music never die.

SURF MUSIC COMMUNITY
Some people think SURF MUSIC had a very short life in the beginning of the 60s in USA, but really this music has never died. The main features of this genre, that from the Dick Dale's sound evolved into a reverb drenched mix of guitars & drums, have been carried on successfully by a large multitude of bands around the globe.
But NOT all instrumental music is surf music... and surf music is NOT "surfers who play some guitar"... :)

Search online for "surf music" and you will find a lot of sources to tell you the stories and facts of this original Californian movement and its great diffusion everywhere!

SurfGuitar101 > www.surfguitar101.com
While Surfer Joe Music, like other associations, carries on the live/concert/event aspect of the music, the most active online blog & community is the SurfGuitar101.com family.
