After the undeniable success of their debut album International Brazilian Surfs released in 2005 and considered by many one of the best surf music records in the history of Brazilian music, now it hits the stores all over Brazil, through Monstro Discos and nationally distributed by Tratore the THE DEAD ROCKS - One Million Dollar Surf Band album.

But the path between those two records wasn't short; the band has suffered changes in its formation, 4 new songs have been released in 7'' vinyl format in the Tiki Twist EP, the band participated in important Portugal and Germany compilations, in 2005 they performed a 30 concert tour through Europe, passing by France, Germany, Belgium and Italy and back to Brazil, a tour with the masked guitarist Daddy-o Grande, from American instrumental rock band Los Straitjackets.

Through the years they have conquered audiences in over 10 Brazilian states where they have performed concerts, always bringing the best of the surf music with a concert of great artistic and musical impact.

One Million Dollar Band has recently been released in Europe during the second tour of the group through the old continent; they performed 9 concerts in Italy and 7 in France, in a total of 16 extremely successful concerts.

The album was recorded during the year of 2007 in three sessions in the LE BOOT studio. The studio, owned by guitarist Cesar Botinha, warranted the use of vintage equipments and the necessary attention demanded by the timbers of surf music.

Being a surf-guitar record, the most different 50's and 60's sonorities have been explored, from the respected Gibson 335 used by jazz artists to the blues sound of the Fender Stratocaster, meeting halfway there the Brazilian vintages Giannini Supersonic and Phelpa Coronado, all spiced up with the peculiar sound of the DiPinto guitars and basses, north-american sponsor of the band.

To mix the tracks, which were captured live, nobody other than Jack Endino was recruited, a Seattle producer known worldwide for his work beside bands such as Nirvana, Screaming Trees, L7, Mudhoney and the Brazilian Titãs. After the mixing process with Pro-Tools system and the use of analog system peripherals the album was mastered in California by surf music specialists Phil Dirt and Adan Myers.

The record brings 14 new compositions of the band, which have influences of the most different styrands of instrumental surf music and also references and techniques of rockabilly, country, "jovem guarda" and of course, rock 'n' roll.

Containing 16 tracks, the album brings versions of 2 big hits: O Milionário, huge classic of the "Jovem Guarda" movement of the 60's and País Tropical, national success by Jorge Ben.

The edition in digipack format, paper cover that foregoes the traditional plastic case, neutralized the emissions of Greenhouse Gases from its production, as a result of the partnership of the band and the non-governmental organization Iniciativa Verde, who has been neutralizing the most different products and events through reforestation.

As all of the other band's releases, One Million Dollar Band will be available for full download in mp3/ogg format under Creative Commons license.
