about

What happens when a longtime Philadelphia-area musician is challenged by a friend and fellow local musician, a huge surf music fan, to write and record new material in that specific genre? You get the Surf Six EP, half a dozen original songs performed by Into the Soup, featuring multi-instrumentalist I Am Winkle (aka Mark Minassian), and his alter-ego Winkle brother bandmates: Benny (bass), Lenny (lead guitar), Robby (rhythm guitar), and Denny (drums).

Bringing the same accessibility, hooks and skilled production as I Am Winkle’s previous work through the years in the retro-pop, smooth jazz, blues, folk, rock and singer-songwriter genres, Surf Six blends the feel of instrumental surf music legends like The Ventures and Dick Dale with a nouveau surf sound. Each song is distinct, yet a common musical thread weaves through the entire EP. Old is new and new is old. As the band is apt to say, "Surf's up, surf's on!" Enjoy the ride!

Update!

Besides getting airplay on terrestrial and internet surf-rock radio shows (including even Kyiv, Ukraine!), the SURF 6 EP by my alter-ego surf band Into the Soup received the following review in the April 2023 issue of Music Connection magazine, a longtime and respected industry publication:

“This is an impeccably realized rendition of your granddaddy’s surf rock --- clean, classic, tuneful, and well executed....Tube Rider has all of the traditional elements of the form. We appreciate the excellent lyrical guitar that spearheads the 12/8 shuffle rocking stroll Sea Breeze Serenade….(And) Run Sammy Run, with its speedy drum work and walking baseline, makes it an ideal soundtrack theme for a jeopardy-filled chase sequence. Film/TV music supervisors should get a taste of this beachy broth.”
