Johnny Utah is an instrumental surf band based out of Salt Lake City, UT. Revivalists of the instrumental surf era that was incredibly popular from about 1958 to 1964. Enjoy songs by popular classic surf acts such as The Ventures, The Shadows, and The Astronauts, coupled with a surf take on new wave hits from the 80s.
The Beachcombers will take you on a musical vacation riding
reverb soaked waves of instrumental surf guitar rock. In the late 50’s
and early 60’s artists like Duane Eddy and the Ventures were well
known and respected. Among youth, the instrumental sound matched
popularity with girl groups and Motown before they were all
steamrolled by the British invasion. The Beachcombers are having a
blast paying tribute to this now underrated and nearly forgotten era
of familiar melodies and swimmingly good tunes.
