Surfing about Music trace multiple connections between music and surfing through subjects ranging from mele (chants/songs) to hapa haole music in HawaiÀi; 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.
