about

We find an Ohio-born dreamer on a California beach, fantasizing about playing guitar and forming a surf-rock band. While thinking aloud, a dolphin playing among the waves is all too noticeable and compulsively thought of for days…

lyrics

I wish I could play good ol’ surf guitar
Like Dick Dale and Link Wray and his Wray Men
I’d sing songs about the sea
And what purpose a porpoise has to me
I’d sing from the shore to the ocean floor
And boogie on the boardwalk at night

At Half Moon Bay I’d take a ride
Down “The 1” to Encinitas for high tide
It seems to me just out of reach
A mighty dorsal fin at Swami’s Beach

I wish to see that dorsal fin again
I’ll sit and practice surf guitar until my fingers bleed
Oh how I need, inspiration
From that creature in the sea
