If you like the music of The Everly Brothers and Norah Jones, or you just like watching stylish longboarding by Kassia Meador, check out this music video for the song “Kentucky” – a cover of an Everly Brother’s song by Norah Jones and the lead singer of Green Day – Billie Joe Armstrong.
Yeah, I don’t know why they chose surfing imagery for a song called “Kentucky” either, but it’s a great song with some beautiful footage.

“Paddow” A song about surfing with Amigas in El Salvador
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKEhvXb-ttc]
Written and performed by Tiffany aka “Sloppy” Joh, “Paddow” is the song of a surf trip to El Salvador with Surf With Amigas. Listen several times to pick up on all the awesome lyrics!
My favorite part goes “I peed just a little, cobra’d all the way down, one more ding in the board at sunzal…”
so awesome!

The Mother Hips are my favorite band, purveyors of musical California Soul that have released 8 albums in a career spanning 20 years. Their sound goes perfectly with driving along Highway 1 with the window down, hair blowing in the breeze, on your way to check the surf. If you like Sierra Nevada swilling, cowboy boot wearing, and California coastal cruising, you will love The Mother Hips. Do yourself a favor and go to the website, download some tunes, load up your van with single fins, firewood, and a good set of hiking boots, grab a few friends and take off on a road trip with a soundtrack that will keep you jamming the whole way there and back again, then come back and let me know what you think.
They recently released a new album that has become my favorite – Behind Beyond, which you can sample for free on their website.
A few years back I was honored to star in a music video for the song “Are You Free”. During the filming, I ended up with two sprained ankles plus several stitches across my knee cap, but it was well worth the experience. You can read that story here.
So practice your skateboarding, you never know when your favorite band leader will call you up and ask you to bomb down a hill!

Jackey Mars is a surfer, singer, songwriter living in San Diego CA who came down to Surf With Amigas and totally rocked it on all fronts. She got a bunch of good waves, even after getting pounded by big sets and taking her fin to her face! She handled rum shots on her birthday, glided down a volcano, and galloped down the beach on horseback. She also jammed for us a song that she wrote that I think every surfer girl can relate to!
