My girls playing Corcovado... Clever kids, they set up a few cameras, then Amanda [the sax player] edited it to one clip. We played like that [kinda unplugged] twice at a senior living complex. Went over well. It's hard since they're only home from school for Summer break and for Xmas. Katy plays piano too, so we learned some Christmas-y ones last year, like Linus and Lucy.

I wrote it for a comp named "Earth Surfing" that was to be released by a small label..the idea was to get a bunch of surf bands to record songs with a vibe of a certain country/region .. After all the songs were recorded and sent, the fellow decided the economy was bad so wanted to hold off releasing it..was kinda weird as he released a cd of his band in the meantime..but I digress. The song did get released on a comp by Deep Eddy Records called "Off The Deep End" and is available on their site or from me. We also released it on the second pressing of the NoM cd "Impact Zone".

Surf Noir started playing surf instrumentals when they were seventeen, but now they´re old and wise and play songs with vocals as well. Surf Noir think that they invented the genre Surf Noir, and sound like Dick Dale has invited Queens of the Stone Age to back him and Chris Isaak to sing. Kind of. This is dark, but fun music.
