Like Jack Johnson?

Postby Mooloolaboarder » Wed Jun 08, 2005 8:16 pm

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.

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.

i know this is kinda off topic... but does anybody know who sings that song that is on the shaping video for the Merrick Single Fin? it kinda sounds like JJ style, i thought it was pretty good

you can listen at it here
http://www.cisurfboards.com
i would have posted the link straight to it but its all flash- click on the main site --> surfboards --> retro--> MSF--> shaping bay video if you wanna check it out
