The AquaSonics
Take a wild ride back to the early 1960’s when every state in the U.S.A. had an ocean. The Reverb-laden, instrumental sound of Surf Guitars was not restricted to the west coast but swept through the nation like a giant wave.
From the streamline grace of “Pipeline” to the brash pummel of “Wipeout” to the majestic wallop of “Miserlou” it was the instrumental blasts that truly sounded the Pacific’s and the nations roar.
It was a full-blown phenomenon! The Fracas spread to thousands of upstart inland Hodad bands like The Trashmen and the Astronauts who were from Colorado just like the Surf band of present, The AquaSonics.
The AquaSonics are the landlocked Surf band from the Mile High City of Denver Colorado who has enjoyed great success playing Surf music throughout the state, shoot’in the curl through the mountains and plains.
We have been around the better part of the twenty first century and have played just about every major venue in the area including Red Rocks Amp. Theater and Denver Center of the performing arts. We have opened for los StraitJackets, Big Sandy and the Fly-rite boys and Deke Dickerson to name a few. We recently headlined a surf music show “Surf’in Sunday” in Surf City, Huntington Beach California, on the beach at the pier With our friends The Surfaris and 4 other surf Bands.
Our weekends are usually spent playing a lot of the great music clubs around the metro area like The Skylark Lounge, Herman’s Hideaway , 3 Kings Tavern , The Oriental Theater etc.
In 2006 we were spotted by the owner of WormTone records and were immediately signed on for our first CD “THE AQUASONICS Play Songs for the Surf’in Set”. Wormtone 2006 Still available. The CD has had good success throughout the states and Europe.
The AquaSonics do our best to recreate that early 60’s sound with vintage gear and look.
On any day of the year its summer somewhere in the world and the AquaSonics will make sure Chris, Maui, Matt and Mad Dog will make you feel like doing the “Surfers Stomp” the whole night long!
The AquaSonics are: Chris: Lead and rhythm guitar, Maui: Lead and rhythm guitar and Mad Dog: Drums.
