As many of you know my musical tastes are all over the place. What you may not know is that I'm a huge fan of surf music. To my surprise I discovered a whole genre of gothic surfabilly style music and I've been completely hooked ever since. I want to shake the hand of the person that said, "Hey lets crossover Goth, Surf, and Rockabilly"!
It's freezing here and snowflakes float by my window as I write this. I love listening to this stuff on a warm summer day sitting in the yard maybe working on one of the motorcycles and knocking back a few beers. I guess I'm feeling nostalgic for the summer!
Warm weather and backyard brewskies might be out of the question but I can put on a little surf and reminisce about warm summer days.
With a sound like something off a Tarantino movie set, this band rocks! The guitarist is simply incrdible. I'd actually love to find an online course that specializes in surf style guitar to learn the basics of this style of music.
These guys are my favorite in this genre. There are so many good bands though. I think they have a really polished style though.
I'd love to see any of these bands live, but these guys look like they'd be particularly fun to see.
These guys have a little more western sound to a lot of there songs but fit the genre perfectly.
This style of music just looks like it would be super fun to play. I love the hypnotizing melodies and the constant lead guitar. Seems like it would be exhausting!
Well that's my unique and different take on this #MusicMonday. Hope you enjoyed the selections. If you're a fan of surf, surfabilly, gothabilly and any of the other sub-genres leave a comment with some suggestions. I'm always looking for new bands to fall in love with! Have a great week ahead!
