Released just in time for their 2006 West Coast tour, this disc features covers of songs by Dick Dale, The Treble Spankers, Paco de Lucia and The Surf Coasters, but done in a way that sounds 100% like The Madeira! Pick this up from the band at any of their upcoming shows, or order it through Double Crown Records.

Fellow instrumental surfaholics - StratoGeezer has joined the ranks of Surfguitar101! We found out about this site from our new friend John McCorvey (formerly of the X-Rays, now the Surge).

We are an instrumental surf trio out of the Atlanta, GA area - and play primarily in our attic/studio - where we record tons of wacky videos - primarily covers of surf classics. We are also starting to play out more this spring.

Check us out and send us your band's link - we'll put it up on our website if you'd like us to!

DVD Release Party for The Danny Morris Band
Former Nighthawks Guitarist Issues Live Concert Video

Danny Morris will release a DVD filmed at a beachside club capturing the guitarist' stunning live performance and tight rhythm section of Mike Tolnay on bass and Chris Waldron on drums. Already receiving pre-release rave reviews, the DVD audio was recorded, produced and mixed by Morris himself. "The video captures all the spontaneity, energy and interaction of our live performances that our fans love to see each show," he says. "It's a straight-ahead, rockin' show by three real-live musicians playing real-live music with no overdubs, sequences or pre-recorded anything."

I was snowboarding at Northstar-Lake Tahoe last weekend. As we were walking in, my 15 year old son stops dead in his tracks and shouts, "Dad, they are playing SLACKTONE!" It was true. Hope to see them play live again sometime soon.
