"How are surfing and music interrelated? Is surfing inherently musical, as is sometimes
claimed? Surfing about Music trace multiple connections between music and surfing
through subjects ranging from mele (chants/songs) to hapa haole music in Hawaiʻi;
from California "surf music" to surfing-themed festivals in Italy and the UK; from
surf movie soundscapes to pro surfaces becoming pro musicians, as well as "soul surfers"
making music on beaches. A lifelong surfer and musician himself, Cooley grounds his
analysis in real-life stories, based on interviews and conversations with surfing
musicians such as Jack Johnson, Tom Curren, and Dave Rastovich; surf movie makers
including Bruce Brown and Andrew Kidman; and other surfer/musicians from Hawaiʻi,
California, the United Kingdom, Italy, Australia, and elsewhere. This first expansive
study of music and surfing broadens ethnomusicological thinking about the many ways
musical activities are integral to human socializing beyond rigid notions of place
and genre. Engaging, informative, and enlightening, this book is a fascinating exploration
of surfing as a cultural practice with accompanying rituals, habits, and deeply held
beliefs about why music is essential for forming disparate but globalized surfing
communities."--Book jacket
