The Vara-Tones play high energy traditional surf rock in the instrumental style of Dick Dale, The Chantays, and the Surfaris.
When the Vara-Tones originated in the early sixties, instrumental surf music was just making its debut. Leo Fender and Dick Dale were experimenting with the outboard reverb unit in conjunction with the Stratocaster and Showman amplifier to create what would be the forerunner to the "heavy" rock sound. The Vara-Tones recently got back together to record their first album "Jetty Subject To High Surf" and have just completed their second CD "Headin' Out". If you like the vintage guitar-driven surf sound, check out the Vara-Tones!
