SUMMARY:Safety Orange
DESCRIPTION:A product of the Californian sunshine\, Beach Rock band Safety Orange have been proudly jamming across the US since ‘95. Founded through a love for surfing and good music\, their laid-back\, reggae-tinged approach to rock has seen them record four studio albums\, spread their sound across the country\, and broadcast good vibes to listeners around the globe. \nFounded in San Diego\, California by surfing buddies Harry Elmore and Sol Turpin. Safety Orange have gone on to craft out a sound truly unique – strong on the downbeat\, soulfully uplifting and wrapped up in reggae-rock tones that intertwine with lashings of punk\, ska\, and Latin music. \nLike most great stories\, the one of Safety Orange was birthed by chance. After a surf session\, Sol was promptly asked to step in on bass by co-founder Harry. It wasn’t long before the duo played at a friend’s house party\, where they proceeded to tear the roof off and alter the very course of their musical lives. Since then\, Safety Orange has never looked back – they fell in love with playing music for others\, and Sol has since strived to bring the Safety Orange sound to others across the globe. \nFrom their 1997 debut offering ‘Life As a Fish’\, their sophomore 2005 album ‘Troll Rock High’\, to the ‘State of Where I Am’\, Safety Orange have had their sights on raising the bar for their signature sound. Their third and most recent album which included worldwide phenomenon ‘Hotel Whatever You Like’\, went on to receive over 4 million streams in a short amount of time\, and they’ve since gone on to release 36 singles thus far. With an output of over 4 CDs worth of music\, and more scheduled for release on their imprint Wabasa Records\, Safety Orange show no signs of slowing down. \n\n\n\n\nMUSICIANS:\nSol Turpin – vocals\, bass\, production\nJacob Gonzales – guitar\nDarryl Brown – drums\n\nPast Musicians:\nHarry Elmore – guitar\nDon Wiseman – drums\nGreg Karlo – guitar\nEric Rockwell – drums\nCarlos “Los” Perez – drums\nJessie “Tato” Tate – drums\nAlbert Hurtado- guitar\nAdam Bausch -  drums\nNate Lions -  guitar

SUMMARY:The Yacht Groove
DESCRIPTION:“Join us for great music from one of SOCALs most talented Yacht Rock acts .All five musicians:  Kevin Bachelder  – Vocalist / Trumpet \, Allison Piccioni – Vocalist / Keys / Sax \, Dieter Weinzettl –  Drums\,  Henry Soliz – Bass  and Frank Browne – Guitar / MD have opened for and or performed with numerous  National touring acts over the last several Years as well as laying down licks as top notch musicians on various albums and other music era acts throughout their careers. The Yacht Rock style of music which has been coined Yacht Rock has only been in the last 10 years but it’s an endearing term to describe what is a basically a hybrid of Jazz \, Rock\, Pop and Soul. Baby Boomers used to call it EZ Listening or Kick Back Music.  It was an easy choice for the band to want to join similar creative forces since having had experience in the genres from those ongoing musical endeavors. \n“The Yacht Groove became a reality a few Years ago as a high end Corporate Party Music Agency band booked primarily at: Country Clubs\, Special Events and Birthday Parties but in the last couple years they have been doing City parks\, Casinos\, and Festivals as well. . This tightly knit fun pop rock act THE YACHT GROOVE will not disappoint. The show performance format is usually a 90 minute concert or done as two shows with a short  intermission . \n“Performing a concert style compilation of all the recognizable 70’s & 80s radio rock hits you hate to admit you love. This party band cranks out all those party hits of yesterday in a fun filled show format while dressed in laid back Nautical attire and throwing in some smooth yachty era banter. So come on out and join the fun . Jump on board\, enjoy the ride and be the Captain of your own Yacht Rock musical experience.  Here’s to good friends. No socks required\,  sun screen optional.”
