Greetings
From:
"An
intoxicating blend of influences that evokes images of California surf,
the dark gothic architecture of Eastern Europe, Nevada desert wastelands
and Louisiana swamp mist, Vegas Beach has a sound that is truly theirs
alone."
Dark
Times Magazine
The
self proclaimed pioneers of the Surf Noir movement, Vegas Beach is
comprised of members
of the some of the more notable acts in the Canadian music scene,
The first incarnation of Vegas Beach
included Vampire Beach Babes cofounder Ricky Las Vegas and the rhythm
section of the notorious New World Disorder (bassist Michael Ratt and
drummer Dave Kimpton), Their first album, entitled Dark Side of the
Beach, was recorded live in only a few hours. It features
several lush instrumentals that weave lazily and effortlessly through a
plethora of different musical genres both dark and light.
The effort received consistently
positive reviews and feedback from a variety of international sources.
Ricky Las Vegas then joined forces with veteran bassist Wavy Davy and the
dynamite drums of Jim "The Cat" Garfield. In 2006 “Share the Sand” was
released to numerous favorable reviews. Both disks are played regularly on
FM, Internet, and satellite radio stations around the planet.
So join them now
for a new phase of exploration of this intriguing soundscape they call...
Surf Noir.
