We'll be warming the crowd for the later show upstairs at the Star Bar with some hot dogs on the patio and some cool tunes with our friends The Del Rios from Cleveland, OH and The Wheel Knockers in the Little Vinyl Lounge located beneath the Star Bar.

Southern Surf Stomp! presents The Blair-Pongracic Band, The Mystery Men?, The Surge!

We will be announcing the 2017 Southern Surf StompFest lineup VERY soon.  But in the meantime, how about an unbelievable historic event announcement?!

We are proud to host The Blair-Pongracic Band on their first stop of their east coast tour this summer.  The group features two of the biggest names in surf music, John Blair of Jon and the Nightriders fame as well as surf music historian and Ivan Pongracic of The Madeira and The Space Cossacks.  The lineup also includes Dane Carter (also of The Madeira) on drums and Jeremy DeHart (of the Aqualads) on bass.



Supporting The Blair-Pongracic Band will be Atlanta's masked enigmas The Mystery Men? and local surf legends The Surge!.

News and April show announcement

It is with deep regrets that I inform you I will no longer be hosting monthly Southern Surf Stomps. It has been an incredible three years(!) and an honor and privilege to work with so many wonderful and talented people. I've made some lifelong friends in the process from all over the country and found a new home at Kavarna. I'm incredibly proud of all the things we've accomplished; hosting 50 surf and instrumental groups in 4 cities across 3 states, with two acts whose members have been nominated for Grammys!

With all of that said, we are far from done. We will still be doing shows such as April 21st's with Jeffrey Butzer's The Compartmentalizationalists, Genki Genki Panic, In Snow, and Nikki Speake (Midnight Larks). If your group would like to perform, please don't hesitate to contact me as we will still be holding shows at Kavarna and elsewhere.
