From the first song, ‘El Rollo’, you know this is going to be a compelling album. Hurray has found inspiration in the sixties surf music of bands like The Surfaris, the Tornadoes, The Ventures, and so on.

The genre is noted for its particular guitar style, and was made popular in Orange County and Southern California. It’s seen a revival in recent years, and this should serve Hurray well as he performs live throughout 2017 across the United States. His flowing guitar melodies carry with them the authentic surf rock feel, and he’s also taken his cues from the arrangements of artists such as Jack Johnson.
