Aqualads, Jeremy Dehart

Tommy's Pub 3124 Eastway Dr Suite 710, Charlotte, NC, United States
“No vocals, just reverb,” Charlotte’s legendary Aqualads proudly proclaim. Like the ever-turning tides, The Aqualads sound eternally restless — at least since 1997, when these surf-rock guitar slingers first got together to explore their love of 1960s-inspired rock instrumentals. With fast, coiling, twanging guitars and thundering drums, the ‘Lads have always been more Dick Dale-style daredevils than shag archivists.
