Product Description

The idea was to make something that would diminish the heavy times we were all experiencing in 2020/21. Something perhaps uplifting with a hint of beauty... or at least a respite from the ugliness outside. Not sure any of this was achieved but it’s a bit of a departure from my normal mode/style… which is necessary from time to time. 70’s drum machines, tremmed-out baritone guitars, verbed-out synth pads, warbly keys, and a slight 80’s sensibility add up to what I have coined, “Surf Goth”. Yes, I joke but it might be on point. Who knows? Thank you all for the continued support!! Big Love TG

About the Artist

Tommy Guerrero may be better known in the world of skateboarding than music. Born in San Francisco, Guerrero joined the skate company Powell Peralta in 1984 and became one of the original members of the legendary "Bones Brigade" team.
