Surfing began inspiring music in the early 60’s with Dick Dale, Del-Tones, and then The Beach Boys, etc, etc…but as of late more and more bands are falling into the surf-inspired category strumming and banging away to create tunes that take you straight to a sunny beach in the middle of summer, even if its 30 degrees out your window…Florida’s Surfer Blood are buzzing with an east coast inspired take on surf rock…Check out the track ‘Swim’ which has been getting some serious attention

Here’s an upbeat song from The Grouch & Eligh featuring Pigeon John and Gift of Gab. Probably one of the best Hip-Hop songs of 2009 that you’ve never heard!?

Its not Monday but we’ve been sleeping on the past few Music Mondays…We’re back on a BIG WEDNESDAY (no pun intended) with a song that we’ve been playing since late summer…Its called Big Wave Rider by a band named Rainbow Bridge. This vintage footage sure makes us want to be some place warm….

Potentially NSFW (not safe for work) or children for that matter, Yeasayer’s new video for their first single from their upcoming album is about as far out and strange and you can get – Face massage / Horseback Riding / Boxing Match / Nudity / Super-Psych – And damn is it cool

Music Mondays with a song off what might be the hip hop album of the year!? If you haven’t checked out “The Ecstatic” yet, then we suggest you do so…it’s a total resurfacing of Mos Def.

Music Monday with a surf-centric song by The Drums…Yes you’re hearing “Obama I want to go surfing” – Politics aside, it’s hard not to laugh a bit and whistle along

Lukid brings a wild blend of dub and electronic music to the table…some great sampling of Daniel Johnston vocals…The filing cabinet next to the sub woofer is rattling hard to this one
