Have you ever wondered why music today often sound so dull? It just seems to lack those fundamental ingredients that make up good music, namely an exciting sound, great songs and loads of fun.

Well, the Surfites are all those things, and more! They take you along through a world of surfing, race cars, thundering hot rods, ancient Egypt and even to the Old Wild West. Their music is captivating, always exciting whether you're at home, on the beach or at a swingin' party.

And the sound. Yes, their sound is very important to the Surfites. It has nothing to do with the predominant sounds of today. This is how music really should sound like; wild, intense and of course swinging.

The Surfites play instrumental surf'n'drag music in the traditional style and were formed in 2004 by the two Fjellgren brothers of Swedish 90's surf band the Daytonas. The Surfites are mainly a studio group with buddies Folke Bergkvist (bass), Henry Karlsson (piano/organ) and Gunnar Lindholm (drums) dropping by for the recording sessions. Klas and Jack Fjellgren play all the guitar parts and write the songs, as well as arranging and producing the recordings.

During 2006 the Surfites completed material for a debut album in their basement studio. The CD entitled "Big Pounder" was released by U.S. label Double Crown Records in 2007 and quickly became one of the labels biggest sellers in recent years.
