Backslider - The Fathoms

Known to many as the best trad surf/instrumental band in the world, The Fathoms, take the 1960's surf sound and infuse it with beat, rockabilly, Latin and even a bit of ska. Coming from Boston, known more for its clam chowder than for "hangin' ten", The Fathoms are the brainchild of guitarist Frankie "Crankie" Blandino whose infectious guitar picking is simply marvelous with its wet-reverb tones and southern-fried twang.
