Southern Surf Stomp! presents The Delusionaires (FL), Vacations, The Cherry Bomb, and The Fringe Factory DJs

The Delusionaires - Imagine yourself in a smoky lounge which time has forgotten and whose patrons have been there since anyone remembered.  An old jukebox is playing some old country or R&B tune to which an old couple dances, and a few men sit at a bar sipping their whiskeys and High Life's in silence.  A band sets up in the corner where no one seems to notice.  Soon they begin playing and folks begin filtering in as the night progresses and before you know it people are gyrating, debauch commences and the night blurs into the next day.  The band in question...The Delusionaires.  Equal parts raunchy surf and sleazy, sax driven R&B, the group provides the soundtrack to curvy, dancing go-go girls in pasties.

Athens, Georgia's Vacations are newcomers in the Southern surf scene.  The trio's style varies, ranging from gritty garage instrumentals to cinematic numbers that create a moody vibe.

The Cherry Bomb worships at the alter of Joan Jett as well as all things rock 'n' roll, and front-woman Amy Arnold is her prophet, channeling Jett with unmatched energy and power.  I first heard the band when The Mystery Men? played with them at Hollyfest 2014 and I was enamored, so much in fact that when it came to needing a voice for Kill, Baby...Kill!'s cover of The Causey Way's "Commandments" for their latest single, she was my first and only suggestion and boy did she deliver!

Southern Surf Stomp! presents The Disasternauts (FL), The Fugitives, and The Wheelknockers

The Disasternauts (Tallahassee, FL) is THE "All-star Astro-Chimp Surf Band" that plays a wide variety of styles within the surf genre, doing so with speed, aggression, technical proficiency, and plenty of volume.  These hominids have performed all around the Southeast including The Hukilau (one of the world's largest Tiki events), Drive-Invasion, Bubbapalooza, and have even played out West during the Surf Guitar 101 convention.  Members for this particular show will include personnel from The Intoxicators and The Mystery Men?.

The Fugitives are relative newcomers to the Atlanta surf scene and too play loud, aggressive, and technical instro surf.  Playing covers ranging from Dick Dale to the Meters, they aim to please and get the audience shaking.

The Wheel Knockers offer up alt country tinged indie rock.  Band leader Jet Powers is no stranger to surf music however, having performed with the legendary Penetrators as well as El Capitan and the Scallywags.
