Greetings from:

SURF NOIR (n):  a dark and twisted instrumental blend of surf, goth, rockabilly, old school rock'n'roll, New Orleans jazz and southern swamp blues, sprinkled with even a hint of country and a healthy dose of camp.

Vegas Beach  are the self proclaimed pioneers of the Surf Noir genre. Their music enjoys a global fan base, and their first two CDs have elicited several rave reviews, amongst which you will find these kind words:

      " Share The Sand is a stellar mix of classic surf sounds."

Robert Silverstein, editor of Twentieth Century Guitar Magazine

      “Once again, a great-sounding CD.  I think what sets Vegas Beach apart from a lot of  modern surf-influenced bands is the strong tunes.”

             Bill Kay, Guitars And All That Jazz (www.guitarsandallthatjazz.com)

“An expansive, inventive, rock instrumental melange with smoothly soaring modern guitar sounds, oodles of atmosphere and still with enough of a beat to get your toes gently but inevitably tapping. This is a very rewarding listen indeed, and my copy has been hijacked by the lady of Pipeline Towers, who has pronounced it as the best album in the history of the magazine - ever."

Alan Taylor, editor of Pipeline Instrumental Review.

 So pour yourself a glass of Lonesome Monkey, kick off your shoes,

               and pull up a chair on Vegas Beach.
