Summary:
"How are surfing and music interrelated? Is surfing inherently musical, as is sometimes claimed? Surfing about Music trace multiple connections between music and surfing through subjects ranging from mele (chants/songs) to hapa haole music in Hawai°i; from California "surf music" to surfing-themed festivals in Italy and the UK; from surf movie soundscapes to pro surfaces becoming pro musicians, as well as "soul surfers" making music on beaches.
