Sierra surf rockers catch a musical wave

The Sun Rays

Surf Rock

In the style of The Shadows, The Ventures, The Chantays and The Surfaris, Tahoe Sierra’s instrumental surf rock band, The Sun Rays, harken back to a time when Woodies cruised every beach town and Pendletons, huarache sandals and bikinis were the fashion du jour.

Comprised of veteran musicians from Reno and Truckee, their music is a special mix of instrumental pop, 60s rock and movie and television theme songs. Dick Dale would be proud.

The Sun Rays performs at 6 p.m. on Nov. 15 at the Community Arts Center in Truckee and at 8 p.m. on Nov. 24 at Peavine Taphouse Eats + Beats in Reno, Nev. | facebook.com/thesunraysband
