Lorenzo Surfer Joe is truly one very active figure in modern surf music. Basically present to any world surf music event as artist or organizer, Lorenzo has collected an experience of way more than a thousand concerts since the late 90s. Constantly on tour in Europe and USA, Lorenzo had the honor to play on guitar or drums with several surf legends and he has shared the stage with many surf bands. Co-organizer of the yearly Surfer Joe Summer Festival, the most important surf music event in then world. Many times in the line up of the Surf Guitar 101 Convention in California. One of the headliners of the Surf-O-Rama in Spain and the North Sea Surf Festival in Holland. Within the first supporters and DJ of North Sea Surf Radio. Mentioned or interviewed in movies like Reverb Junkies and Sound Of The Surf and in books about surf music's history like Surf Beat by Kent Crowley and the scientific paper Surfing About Music by Tim Cooley. In August 2013 Lorenzo released his first solo album, SEÑOR SURF, which is considered one of the best traditional surf music albums of the past years. Out of this album, the song The North Swell has been voted within the 100 best surf revival songs ever. In April 2012 he opened, together with the brother Luca and a friend, the only diner and music venue dedicated to surf music, the Surfer Joe Diner, which periodically hosts concerts and international events. It now includes an American diner, a tiki bar and a large outdoor garden. THE MUSIC OF SURFER JOE When talking about surf music with Surfer Joe you don't look for compromises: REVERB, high rhythms and great energy! It is a concert that looks back to the origins of the genre, but shows its evolution and variety, going from the heavy Dick Dale sound to lounge and progressive atmospheres, always keeping an eye on the melody and the quality of the arrangements. THE CARIBBEAN YEARS On December 2004 Lorenzo left Italy and moved to Antigua, in the Caribbean, where he stayed until February 2011. In those years he formed the WADADLI RIDERS considered the first and only surf band ever from that region. The band was a trio line-up that Lorenzo started on drums changing to guitar one year later. Wadadli Riders were a traditional surf band, with a pretty classy style and several good original tunes next to a long list of classic covers. They produced an album in July 2009, titled Made In Antigua, which has gone around the world and released on CD and vinyl (Surfer Joe Music / Green Cookie Records). http://www.lorenzovaldambrini.com/
