THE SURF CITY ALL-STARS / THE LEGENDS OF SURF MUSIC<br />
What an<br />
awesome opportunity to<br />
get that true ‘California Sound’ for<br />
a fraction of the cost!<br />
This band has toured for years<br />
with the biggest names in Surf<br />
Music and is man for man the<br />
greatest surf and beach party<br />
band around... on par with their<br />
friends The Beach Boys!!<br />
The Surf City All-Stars are<br />
David Logeman (Jan & Dean,<br />
Frank Zappa, The Beach Boys),<br />
Don Raymond (The Ventures,<br />
Jan & Dean), Matt Jardine<br />
WILSON WILLIAMS & HIS PLATTERS<br />
With hits like “Only You,” “The<br />
Great Pretender,” and “Smoke<br />
Gets In Your Eyes,” The Platters<br />
have been a staple for audiences<br />
world-wide for over 50 years!<br />
Wilson Williams carries on the<br />
tradition (he joined the Platters<br />
in 1996) with an all-star ensemble<br />
that is <strong>full</strong> of energy and<br />
excitement. They accurately perform<br />
the ballads and get the audience<br />
on their feet with all the<br />
hits of yesteryear!<br />
This group is available selfcontained<br />
with <strong>full</strong> band, or can<br />
travel with the four vocalists and<br />
perform a professionally choreographed<br />
track show that is ideal<br />
for lower budgets.<br />
(Beach Boys, Wilson/Philips,<br />
Jan & Dean), Gary Griffin<br />
(Beach Boys, Brian Wilson),<br />
and Philip Bardowell (Beach<br />
Boys). While the Surf City All-<br />
Stars are made up of legendary<br />
members themselves, we<br />
can even add original Beach<br />
Boys members Al Jardine<br />
and David Marks to the mix,<br />
along with Dean Torrence of<br />
Jan & Dean... in any configuration!<br />
When you hear the band, you<br />
get the authentic "SURF" sound<br />
and harmonies that were taught<br />
to the Allstars by Brian Wilson and<br />
Mike Love of the Beach Boys, and<br />
Jan Berry of Jan & Dean. The<br />
Surf City Allstars perfected their<br />
vocals and performance of all the<br />
greatest surf music hits through<br />
years of touring with the legendary<br />
Beach Boys and Jan & Dean.<br />
The Surf City Allstars and The<br />
Legends of Surf Music will not<br />
only play all the classic Beach<br />

Wilson Williams, a hit<br />
maker on his own prior to<br />
joining The Platters (he recorded<br />
with ABC Records, and<br />
was one of the last to use<br />
Motown’s Funk Brothers for his<br />
backing band), is blessed with a<br />
rich baritone voice that handles<br />
the pretty ballads with a smooth<br />
mellow voice or R&B with a gut<br />
wrenching, gravelly style.<br />
In the late sixties, his first big<br />
break came when he became a<br />
member of the famed Virginiabased<br />
gospel group “The Peerless<br />
Four”. He would eventually<br />
land a role in Rev. Butler’s, civil<br />
rights-inspired musical “Selma” in<br />
1976, playing the role of Reverend<br />
Jesse Jackson for two<br />
years. Not long after he scored<br />
a solo hit with “Up The Downstairs.”<br />
This show is one of our most<br />
popular, because the members<br />
are easy to work with, the price<br />
is right, and the reviews are<br />
amazing! Williams is joined by<br />
the “dish” Sase’, Melvin<br />
Whitaker, and longtime member<br />
of The Contours, Charles Davis.<br />
