Dudes,
Ive been looking around for new surf music and ran accross this cool guy from Florida who has a bunch of Surf Tunes and Beach Music. Its kinda a cross between early Jimmy Buffett and Jack Johnson. He has a new CD called "Long Boards & Short Stories" boatsongs.com Check it out. You can hear all of his tunes online. Later, James

WOW, DON'T MAKE SENSE AT ALL! Get a D.A.T. and slow his stuff down so you can hear the words. I havn't heard a song yet that does not make sense! His stuff is brutely honest about the shallow subcultured human society we live in! On the flip side he takes what is in his head and honestly puts it to tab. Not to many musicians can do that and make a worthy track out of it.

As much as I like the boy Jack,he's had a blessed life being able to surf on tour/play music all day and make films.I have to work for a living and as much as he helps with the chore of getting through work!....there is a bitterness!! :lol:only joking.....but give me that kind of chance and im off!

His stuff is not that hard to understand. It takes a special kind of person not to get it. Those are usualy the types he "JJ" is talking about in his music! Any REAL music lover can appreciate his stuff.
