Hey all,
my name's Sébastien and some of you may remember me from Los Venturas and later The Tritones. After about 10 years of doing my own thing (and moving to France), I decided it was time to bring out the gimp, uh... I mean reverb tank again. The result is Konbu Express. We just recorded a few tunes for a demo, wich I uploaded here: https://soundcloud.com/konbuexpress
Only first wave covers on the demo, but we've got a few originals as well. The thing is, surfbands are really rare this side of the country (and France isn't exactly surf-instro land either) so it seemed like a better idea to take out the classics first.
Hope you enjoy!
Cheers
Sébastien

SanchoPansen : oops, sorry for the late reply. We're near Brest, far west of France.
I uploaded a few more recordings on our SoundCloud : https://soundcloud.com/konbuexpress
Although we play a few of my compositions, our setlist is mainly surf/instro classics.
