SAN DIEGO, CA — Pacific Records recording artists The Tourmaliners have released their brand-new single, “Phantom Break,” available today on all major streaming platforms and Bandcamp.
Driven by the band’s signature surf-guitar sound, “Phantom Break” was inspired by the secret, legendary surf spots hidden along the coasts of California and Hawaii. These elusive breaks can remain completely dormant until the right swell direction and tide align to bring them roaring to life.
The single’s cover artwork features a beautifully restored 1964 Plymouth Belvedere owned by the band’s friend Brad Purvis, who generously allowed the classic car to be featured.
“Phantom Break” offers another preview of The Tourmaliners’ forthcoming album, El Gato, due out in late September through Pacific Records and Colorado Instrumental Fanzine. The album will be available on 12-inch translucent red vinyl, CD, download and all major streaming platforms.
Known for their energetic performances and modern take on instrumental surf music, The Tourmaliners previously earned the Best Rock Album honor at the San Diego Music Awards for their Pacific Records release Surfidia.
“Phantom Break” is available now on Bandcamp and all major streaming platforms.
