On the night of March 16, 2019 The Cosmic Sand Dollars played their first live show despite being an active recording group for nearly 5 years. The very next day the band members learned that the previous night during their set, some 60 miles south, surf guitar legend Dick Dale passed away. This album was written and recorded that next week as a humble tribute to the memory and legend of Mr. Dale.
Under the premise of surf music, the Cosmic Sand Dollars explore and push the limits of the oft-misunderstood genre as well as begging, borrowing and stealing from several other genres, implementing homemade electronics and a mish-mash of recording techniques to come up with something more than the sum of its parts. Don't let the 'surf' moniker fool you, any hodad freak-oh can get down with this. Mastered by William Killingsworth. Album liner notes by Tony Rettman. Excelsior!
