Our first album is out now on LP (Surf Cookie Records SC049) and major streaming platforms. CD coming soon!
The album was recorded live on 2 days without overdubs.
We are proud to introduce our latest recording, The Earthtone Sessions. We visit tunes from previous releases "Benthic Exploration", "Madrugada", "Summer", "Burn the Breeze" and "Me Gusta Jorge Arbusto" and give them a reworking!
Side One:
Side Two:
Recorded over winter 24/25 at Earthtone Studios with Pat Hills manning the controls, we put these down in live fashion with very little overdubs. We like to stay as true as we can to how they will sound when seeing us live! Why would we re-record these tunes? Well, since we have been playing these songs for the last number of years, they have taken on a new flavor, a different feel. So, we wanted to capture what they are now!
You can get our new release in digital format off Bandcamp, Spotify (waiting for it to load!), all streaming services and eventually on CD! Now give our latest record a listen. Reverb, set, new record!
The Starhoppers new album "Coronal Mass Ejection" is streaming now everywhere that music streams!

There are plenty of modern day surf artists that pen songs that have a western twang or take on some South American vibes, but Los Grainders turn the table on their northern counterparts, with a classic approach to surf. Focusing on “that” SoCal sound, this outfit from Mexico City knows their stuff and backs it up with the latest release, Surf Beat ’23. We've teamed up with MuSick Recordings for this Limited Edition red 10" vinyl.
“The guitars sparkle and shine against the backdrop of some mellow basslines and beautiful drum work. The album starts off with the fast-paced Storm Surf and settles into a nice groove, trading tempos back and forth between tracks. The balance makes for a fantastic listen, never falling into one groove. It’s tough to pick a favorite track, but Nomoro with its quick picking is a frontrunner, but I also love the deep and dreamy track Santa Ana Winds. While many surf bands shoot for a traditional surf sound, Los Grainders have done their homework.”

M.A.N.T.I.S. 2nd single from Time Surfers released today on all Streaming platforms!!!

Recorded at Pineapple Studios in NY.

Here is my first original recorded tune called "Podium Finish", under the guise of The Outback Surf Squad, where i plan to collaborate with my trusted surf music buddies with the aim of bringing out an ep one of these days.
"Podium Finish" was in collaboration with Jason Deatherage from The Surf Hermits.
I have always been fascinated by the hot rod racing scene of the 50s and 60s and that was the inspiration for "Podium Finish"...if you like surf-a-billy style instro rock, then take a listen!!
Have a super day....Jamie Balcombe.

Christmas Yet To Come is a collection of original holiday instrumentals from The Deathly Quiet. It also happens to be the band's first release.
Is it odd for a band's first release to be a holiday collection when the band has no intention of solely releasing holiday tunes (instrumental or otherwise)? Perhaps, but 'tis the season and all that. Let's not overthink this. Some songs were written. There were sleigh bells. You know how these things go. One thing led to another and now there's Christmas Yet To Come.
So, grab a hot beverage, curl up under a warm blanket and enjoy The Deathly Quiet.
