We've just started putting the project together -- we haven't found a drummer yet. Instruments include bass guitar, saxophone, theremin, and vibraphone.

We all have an interest in 50s/60s instrumental-- lounge, spy-fi, tiki and surf music. No one involved in the project has necessarily played in this kind of group before; some of us have played some jazz, and some of us are from a straight rock background but have always wanted to play in these musical styles. An affection and understanding of the music is probably most important.

Our goal is to play spaceage/tiki pop with a surf twist, if that's possible...and come up with some originals, while performing some covers; I'd like to see us twist up some of the covers in weird ways and also perform some lesser-known pieces in the genre.
