Pollo Del Mar's "Carol if the Bells" is the lead off track on this new compilation from Double Crown Records:
Pollo del Mar appears on a new compilation released by Hear Music called "Big Waves: Five Decades of Surf Rock"- available 6/26 at a Starbuck's near you!
Formed in 1993, 3 Studio CDs, 2 Live CDs, appearances on 20 tributes and compilation CDs, a European tour and a Japan tour. All instrumental, lots of odd influences, but still based in the surf sound.
Here is what some nice people had to say about our CD "The Golden State":
Guitar Player: "Pollo Del Mar craft lilting, cinematic vistas, without ever losing sight of surf's classic melodic sensibilities. Very well done."
Discoveries: "One of the best releases of 2004"
20th Century Guitar: "One of the hottest instrumental rock bands on the scene today"
Garage and Beat: "Pollo Del Mar should be part of your life's soundtrack"
Rock N Roll Purgatory: "almost a spiritual quality, like a transcendent exploration of the abyss" -
Reverb Central: "Well, it doesn't get much better than this! ...simply stunning!
Cozmik Debris: "Their sound is deep and vast, with an element of mystery compelling to anyone who has ever found themselves staring out to sea and sensing its power" -
Vintage Guitar: "Let's just say that things never get boring."
Continental: "Without a doubt the best Pollo Del Mar release to date, showing off their impeccable playing, songwriting and recording skills" -
Pipeline: "A bunch of clever bastards really"
