All the tunes a classic surf band might play (and then some), but with just our two guitars (no drums, bass, etc.). On Surf Music Unplugged we used acoustic guitars, then we switched to electrics for Plugged In and LIVE. In either case, the focus is on creative interplay between lead and rhythm guitars!
