About Me

LONGBOARD RANCH is an instrumental SURF band from Los Angeles California. We have a wet reverb sound that's nostalgic from the early 1960s, with influences of western rock, spy music, outer space themes & latin rythyms. The band plays Fender, Mosrite, Wilson Bros. and Phantom guitars through vintage Fender amps. The group performs in the Southern California area around Los Angeles, Orange County and Ventura. We have 2 awesome CDs of original music: Our debut release is Surfin' Out West and our latest disc is Longboard Ranch Rides Again! Each CD contains 22 tracks of all original surf tunes. We have also been featured on surf comp CD's like AZTEC BEACH from KCR of San Diego and EVIL FUZZ, a tribute to Davie Allan (king of the fuzz guitar), as well as SURF GUITAR 101. Coming soon: 6 Gun Surf from DWM Music. We were also nominated as best surf band at the Orange County Music Awards 2006! Please visit us at:www.shoplongboardranch.com for purchasing CDs, gigs, merchadise & information about the band. You can find our CDs on CD Baby and DWM Music. Summer of 2008 is going to be Epic! SURFS UP!...are you ready to ride?
