duo-tonesVeteran rock-instrumental masters PAUL JOHNSON & GIL ORR have hit upon a unique and winning idea: by leaving out the drums and bass, they put the focus on their delightful dual-guitar interplay (both acoustic and electric), which lends fresh appeal to the surf-instro genre.

Paul co-founded the pioneer ’60s surf band, the Belairs ["Mr. Moto"]; he currently plays with the Surfaris ["Wipeout"]. Gil has been with the Chantays ["Pipeline"] since the ’60s.

With two popular CDs and a growing visibility (they were a big hit recently on “A Prairie Home Companion”), the Duo-tones are creating a stir among many music fans who are discovering for the first time just how rich this stuff can be when played with the skill and authority that Paul and Gil bring to it. Always a fave act here. Many encores for a reason.

Tickets: $18.00 Call for Reservations/Information: (626) 398-7917
