He isn’t just a Jack Johnson’s friend, he’s another surf music talent, I mean he isn’t the perfect type of surf music style but he’s a great instrumentalist and singer but he has something more inspiring, the power of make people get crazy with piano solos, he’s just a insane pianist. He has a band called ALO and he also have a solo career. I listen Zach since 2006 but I just had a chance to post about him when I heard again a perfect song called: “Watch them grow” it’s a very emotional song ‘cuz he talks about the moments of children, the birth, the first time, growth and time to go to adult life. He’s a comedian too, he makes some funny videos about weird songs like “Narwhal, the unicor of the sea”, what else can I say ? Nothing, he’s a awesome singer, you should take a look in some songs by him and the band, mahalo nui loa everybody.

I’m a real surf lover and also a surf music fan. I can’t say a lot of things about the style, it’s a simple style without beats, special voices, second voices, is just a guitar and nice lyrics. We have some differents surf music styles, the rock and the acoustic one. I’m a acoustic fan but doesn’t mean that I don’t like the rock style. people make confusion with the acoustic style, we have the “urban style” and the surf style, I’m a fan of both of them. The urban style has a leader called John Mayer, he’s the best with a acoustic guitar playing with guitar and some beats – that’s the big difference between the urban and the surf, the beats, new arrangements with the beats.
The list of awesome surf musicians: Jack Johnson, Tristan Prettyman, Jason Mraz, The Beautiful Girls, Donavon Frankenreiter, Zach Gill, A.L.O, Mat McHugh (The Beautiful Girls singer).
End of the year, starting to prepare the xmas things and I’ve been thinking, I really should do something special for the blog. I’m not sure about what but I’m thinking in some list of the favorites or top list of my favorites songs. For sure I’m going to talk about John Mayer, Jack Johnson, John Butler Trio and the gorgeous woman, Tristan Prettyman. Talking about her once again I’m falling in love with her talent, her sweet face and her voice, she has a very sexy voice and a special talent, she’s a singer and a guitar player, isn’t easy.
Also I’ll do something special for all youtube singers, they’re the motion of this blog with the acoustic style, the talent is something that we really take a look with more attention, sometimes people just forget about it, we have so much people talented singing on youtube without a chance to prove the real value of this talent. I’m not saying that we should work in an official contract for these people but we won’t get hurt if we take a look in their jobs, their songs. That’s all people, I’ll post later, mahalo.

Two guys playing “Ocean”, Jon and Jarrod. This is a cover of the one of greatest instrumental songs in history, with no doubts. But there’s something even more cool, two guys playing in another style, they started in another chord, combination. – pretty amazing. I didn’t find more informations about them, so… there’s only this link available, mahalo.

Danyka Nadeau and Tyler Martin, I found this guys playing a cover of La Roux – Bulletproof – great song by the way. And they’re really great. A lot of things made my mind to post about them, they’re very eclectic and that’s great when you’re talking about amateur singers – Play different songs, in different chords.
She likes to cover singers like Rihanna, Beyoncé even Estelle – isn’t my favorite type of music – but she really impressed me whit her talent, congrats girl and nice teamwork, that’s awesome, mahalo.

Obviously I’m talking about her, Tristan Prettyman. Everytime when I’m listening Tristan I get impressed with her talent, she has a impressive voice and a facility to change her voice, that’s a impressive quality. She’s the queen of surf music style, with no doubts, she has great songs like: “Hello”, “November”, “War out of Peace” and that’s what I’m going to do, search for good covers of Tristan, it will be fun.

Is all about quality ? In these days no, isn’t. It’s simple, we have some kind of addiction in money, specially in this business, music is a huge business to make money. My answer isn’t and it’s pretty simple, all the youtube singer that I posted here; Pianki, Kina, Sarah, Jerem, Kiersten, Mike – they’re all very talented, right ? But in some styles, you won’t get a lot of money and that’s what music producers want.
“We have some addiction in money.”
Hiphop is the exemple of a style with a lot of money invested, why ? I’ve no idea, we can hear about explicity sexuality, stupid lyrics – but a great beat, rythym – But isn’t enough to make this music style so powerful, it’s something that we’ll never know. Unfortunately we live in a world moved by money, that’s our reality until some change occurs, we will enjoy our youtube singers on youtube.

Checking some covers of Jack Johnson, John Butler Trio and Tristan Prettyman I saw this dude playing: “Beautiful” (a girl singing too), alright, the video is pretty awesome but I’m talking about him ‘cuz he has surf in hobby and music style. His name: Mike Salisbury, in his youtube channel you can watch him playing songs by; Jimi Hendrix, G Love and another important fact, he’s a songwriter. It’s a great recomendation if you’re a surf lover and a surf music fan – you can download his cd on his website, enjoy it, mahalo.

From San Diego this woman has a beauty voice and a special talent with acoustic guitar. Really great. I’m a great fan, her style it’s just amazing a woman playing in a “surf style” – insane mate. Great songs like: “Madly”, “When it rains”. Tristan made a great duet with Jason Mraz playing “Shy that way”. It’s a great recomendation, check this girl singing, take a look in some important links, mahalo.
