The funds raised as part of the 2008 Surf Cruise Cup will be disbursed to the charities–Lions Club GlobaI Surf Cruise Cup charities (Surfing Heritage Foundation, Surfaid International, Life Rolls On) and Fender Museums Kids Rock Free music education programs–throughout the event.
PEPPER has sold over 400,000 records independently, their music has appeared in many movie, television and video game soundtracks and they’ve had a number of album tracks appear on the Billboard “Hot Modern Rock Tracks” chart. Their fifth studio album PINK CRUSTACEANS AND GOOD VIBRATIONS was released in July 2008 via their self-run label LAW Records, in association with Controlled Substance Sound Labs/MRI distribution. The album was produced by Paul Leary of the Butthole Surfers–who also took to the boards on the band’s fourth album No Shame–and engineered by Wyn Davis at Total Access Studio in Redondo Beach. PEPPER also released the live album KONA GOLD (Law Records/Volcom Entertainment) this past April. The 19-track CD was recorded at the band’s sold-out Fox Theater show in Boulder, CO in August 2008. Their song “Your Face” from their album No Shame is now available for Guitar Hero World Tour, after first being made available as part of a free trio of downloadable reggae songs from Controlled Substance Sound Labs during the 2008 holiday season.
