The Surf Rock Summit returns for a third time! Once again
we've got three Pittsburgh bands giving it up to the great surf sounds of the
past *and* the future. We've got The Turbosonics, The Killifish, and the
Hi-Frequencies, rocking out from 8 pm on. $10 cover charge. Come on toast the
first full day of Spring! Surf's not far away!
In the headlining slot is The Turbosonics, a trio that has been rocking out on classic surf tunes and distinctive originals in Pittsburgh for over 10 years. They are regulars in local venues and are often seen on the road, from Ohio to New York.
Second on the bill is The Killifish, a trio of highly active local musicians, including Jeff Berman (of Appalasia and Blink, among many others) on drums, Daryl Shawn (known as a frequently-appearing solo artist) on guitar, and 6-string bassist Hollis Greathouse. They add a sophisticated sense of improvisation and interplay to their original music.
Kicking off the evening is the return of the Hi-Frequencies, who put out their first recording back in 1999. They nail the early 60's sound with their own original twist.
