Surplus

About Me

Surplus started off as a series of songwriting sessions between Dez and Gube in September of 2003...every Friday nights at the Army & Navy Surplus Store/Studio. More and more people showed up, and the songs just got better and better. The players stuck around, and now the project is ready to hit the streets as a real band. And more!
Stay tuned for details on The Surplus*Music Show. It's a true story...happening right now in Van Nuys, CA.
Tune In...Witness the birth of a movement...follow the Surplus band's coming of age...see celebrity headline acts take "the challenge"...witness dreams realized, abandoned or lost...see regular guys trying to make their way in "the businness" -- just how far can they take it on their own terms? Style, format, age, experience be damned! This is The Raw Jam!
