The Surf City Allstars were formed in the early 80's
with the band members who were touring with both the Beach Boys and Jan & Dean.
The Surf City Allstars are now a full time endeavor for the band members. The
Surf City Allstars are the best surfin' beach party band around on a par with
their friends, the Beach Boys. Each member has had a long career in surf and
beach music. When you hear the band, you get the authentic "SURF" sound and
harmonies that were taught to the Allstars by Brian Wilson and Mike Love of the
Beach Boys, and Jan Berry of Jan & Dean. The Surf City Allstars perfected their
vocals and performance of all the greatest surf music hits through years of
touring with the legendary Beach Boys and Jan & Dean.
The Line-Up
The Allstars are rounded out with Gary
Griffin on keyboards (Beach Boys, Jan & Dean), David Logeman on
drums (Jan & Dean, Mike Love's California Beach Band, Beach Boys),
and Don Raymond on guitar (The Ventures, Jan & Dean). The band is
also very pleased to add Philip Bardowell on bass and vocals after
years of his touring with the Beach Boys, and Matt Jardine from the
Beach Boys on vocals and percussion.
The Show
The Surf City Allstars will entertain
your group with such audience participation segments as their famous
"Air Guitar" contest, where the band gives away a brand new,
autographed Fender Squier Stratocaster guitar; the "Wipe Out
Contest" where audience members get a chance to play the famous drum
solo with the Allstars and win autographed drumsticks and a T-shirt;
our "Dance Contest" where CD prizes are given away; and even a
"Hula-Hoop Contest" where we give away more CDs and a DVD. It all
adds up to one great time for your audience in the best Beach Party
experience that there is. The Surf City Allstars also bring the
finest oldie's dance tunes to round out their engagements so
everyone can dance to their favorite songs and have fun.

"They sound like the real deal because they ARE the real deal! Dean
Torrence and the Surf City Allstars are not like the typical tribute

who actually sang and played on those hits by Jan & Dean and the
Beach Boys. Great show!"
