Music from the CD 'Warning, Heavy Surf Advisory' by The Concaves is Featured in the Award winning Surf Documentary 'Cowells and The New Millenium' by Santa Cruz surfer/filmmaker/author Pat Farley.
The Concaves are a rock vocal and instrumental band now with two released cd's including 'Alive From The Red Triangle' along with 'Warning, Heavy Surf Advisory'.
The music of The Concaves is moving,passionate,moody and upbuilding. We try to blend old school styles along with the modern techniques and sounds of the present day musician. The Concaves are not just trying to emulate a sound or create music that copies old rock or surf music, but are tryin to capture the energy of an evolving, changing sport that they love and have been immersed in all their lives, using a blend of modern day sounds, and old school warmth,soul and feel.
This is one of the first modern day surf bands from Surf City Santa Cruz Nor-Cal to ever record all original songs. This music chronicles living in a small surf community that has grown to an international surf destination. It is a work by surfer-musicians who themselves have experienced the love of surfing but also has been inspired by the surfers of Santa Cruz. Hawaiian Princes brought surfing to Santa Cruz from Hawaii in the 1890's before anywhere else on the mainland. That gave Santa Cruz a very original unique distinction. The Concaves are a surf-music first for Santa Cruz as well.
Santa Cruz is one of those very unique areas in that it has a large variety of surf spots condensed into a small area. It is a surfing mecca. The Concaves have written tunes and play music to celebrate the great Surf Culture that thrives here in Santa Cruz. Please enjoy our Music. You can order one of our cd's from www.cdbaby.com. Songs from the albums can be downloaded directly from itunes, cdbaby, and other sites.
You can also purchase either 'Warning Heavy Surf Advisory' or 'Alive From The Red Triangle' at Streetlight Records.
