Our “All That’s Left Are Ruins” California Tour begins in just a few weeks! We will be playing eight shows between July 21st and July 30th, starting in San Diego, finishing in San Francisco, and hitting many stops along the way (for a complete listing of the gigs, click on the Shows button on the left). Joining us will be nearly a 'who’s who’ of modern surf music, including Slacktone (for three shows), Pollo Del Mar, Insect Surfers, The Pyronauts, The Neptunes, The Glasgow Tiki Shakers, and The Sand Devils.
Double Crown Records will be releasing our brand-new, 5-track CD-EP “Ruins” just in time for the tour. The official release will be in August, but you will be able to buy the CD from us at our California shows. This is an all-covers release, with the following tracks:- The Victor (Dick Dale – USA)
- Dilmohammed (The Treble Spankers – Holland)
- Almoraima (Paco de Lucia – Spain)
- Intruder #1 (The Surf Coasters – Japan)
- Intruder (The Surf Coasters – Japan)
The total length is close to 15 minutes. These tracks were recorded last summer during the “Sandstorm” sessions, and they reflect some of our influences and our appreciation of fellow purveyors of exotic and hard-hitting surf music.
We very much hope we will get to see many of you this month. Have a great summer!
