Surf's up at the Freight tonight as the Duo-Tones, Paul Johnson (formerly of the Belairs, Packards, and Surfaris) and Gil Orr (formerly of the Chantays), play pure, essential surf music like you've never heard it before. Smooth and easy as a beachside sunset, playful as a post-siesta breeze, this is the real stuff: no drums, no bass -- just two surf masters and their acoustic guitars. Paul and Gil will be playing tunes off their recent album, Surf Music Unplugged(Hep Cat), providing refreshing takes on classics like "The Wedge," "Pipeline," "Mr. Moto," and "Walk, Don't Run," with exquisitely delicate, fluid playing that brilliantly uncovers the essentials of the music. |
