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!.

Southern Surf Stomp! presents The Buckrabbits, Racket Squad, Two Sisters

We're kicking off the new year with three new groups to the Stomp! Montgomery, Alabama's The Buckrabbits are an instrumental surf punk trio heavily influenced by the likes of Link Wray and the Ramones. You may have caught them at the Clarkston Surf Fest almost ten years ago(!) in 2008. Making their debut, Racket Squad features members of The Surge! and I'm told will perform instrumentals which predate the surf genre, where tape delay was used in lieu of spring reverb as it had not yet been invented. Maestro Eddie Katcher takes the helm so in my eyes the group can do no wrong and we're sure to be treated to another master class. Two Sisters will provide the 'turf' portion of the evening with female fronted pop music in the vein of Neko Case and Camera Obscura.
