The music played on The Rockin Surfer Show is a cultural collision of Rockabilly, Surf, and the grey areas of R & B and Country. It’s all the different types of music and sounds that emerged after WWII and evolved into Rock and Roll as we know it today. We featured special themed shows including Valentine’s, Christmas, Beach Party and more. Currently, we are airing re-broadcast seasonally, with a new broadcast series in the works!
