The Exotics

About Me

Get with the NOW sound! The Go Go Guitars of The Exotics, one of the Midwest's top instrumental combos, are the latest smash with swinging youth everywhere. These four hip heartthrobs were drawn together at Seagull Bluff high school by their shared passion for record collecting and Polynesian culture. As luck would have it, all four were skilled musicians, and the idea of a group came naturally. The impact of their super twangy, reverb drenched guitars eliminated the need for vocals. Since then, they've spent every waking moment honing their driving guitars and big go go beat, and the result has been dancehalls and ballrooms from the Mid-West to the Eastern Seaboard and beyond filled with mobs of teen and young adults alike working themselves into a GO GO FRENZY! With the summer release of their first long playing album, they are poised to take it to the top! ..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5
