Matt Mays, Sam Roberts go surfing

As the summer's coming to an end, in many parts of the country seemingly before it even started, here's a video full of that feel-good warmth to cheer you up. Complete with surfing, rock and roll, buddy jokes... and Sam Roberts in a wetsuit.

The video wraps up with Matt Mays & el Torpedo's Terminal Romance, both in the background of the surfing footage, as well as live concert footage before el Torpedo disbanded.

Enjoy!



Sam Roberts' tour dates:
Sept. 18 Albany, NY @ Northern Lights
Sept. 21 Northampton, MA @ Iron Horse Music Hall
Sept. 22 Portland, ME @ Port City Music Hall
Sept. 24 New York, NY @ Gramercy Theater
Oct. 3 Austin, TX @ Zilker Park (Austin City Limits Music Festival)

and it appears that Matt Mays may have a new album coming up in the fall of 2009, if his website is any indication...

An end and a beginning

Matt Mays posted a note on his website declaring the end of his band of 7 years, El Torpedo. May explain why they cancelled all those US tour dates and their scheduled appearance at JunoFest back in March... Sad face.
