Wild rock'n'roll surf from France.
Amsterdam (NL) based band. A band with latin-american rythm influences and not that much reverb you'll expect from a surfband. It's obvious they like the shadows and the ventures.

Slingshot Dragster are an Australian group that formed for the love of 60's Surf and Garage. A guitar driven band with the sweet sounds of the Farfisa organ, thumping bass lines and furious drumming that will get the heart pounding with anticipation, and the mouth longing for a cold ale.....
If you're from L.A.'s Echo Park/Silverlake musical scene spawned at Spaceland in the 1990s, you know Double Naught Spy Car well. On the scene since 1995, Spy Car has a legacy of sweat drenched epic shows with every band that counted, from House of Blues to Knitting Factory and Largo residencies to Al's Bar. They've backed up James Ellroy, Stan Ridgway, Moris Tepper, Stew, and a long parade of singer/songwriters, and stumbled into the legit modern classical world with the American Composer's Forum. They've play surf and new music festivals, new music festivals, were house band for Circus Sirius, shared stages with Pere Ubu, Banyan, David Lindley, and Jonathan Richman, collaborated with ex-Zappa and Beefheart alumni. If it's fringe or bold, with a palm tree in the background, Double Naught Spy Car has been there.

PDX A Go-Go... Five bands... ten songs...that preserve a moment in time, the summer of 2012, when instrumental surf music rode the crest of a wave in Portland, OR. Musicians are forming surf bands, several venues are giving these bands a stage and an audience is growing. Duff's Garage, the club that always gave instro surf a home, is ground zero. There's an excitement about the bands and the music. Many different directions are being explored by these bands, proving that a subgenre thought by many to be one-dimensional is anything but.
