In what has become a summertime tradition, The Beautiful Girls collective are hitting the road to chase the sun.
For frontman Mat McHugh, who juggles his love of both music and surfing in equal measures, summer 2015 is the perfect time to combine his passions, this time in the form of the Summer Sound System tour, which sees the collective hitting over a dozen surfing Mecca’s along the Australian coastline.
Delivering familiar staples from the past as well as tracks from the brand new Beautiful Girls studio album Dancehall Days, The Summer Sound System tour is the perfect summer soundtrack.
“Music is something that really propels me creatively, but there’s something about the ocean that I can’t ever do without,” McHugh said.
“I always get asked whether I was a musician that surfs or a surfer who plays music.
“I don’t think I have an answer - they are both part of who I am and for me, there’s no better way to spend summer than being able to combine the two.”
The sun drenched, reggae-tinged surfside music already has international reps branding The Beautiful Girls as a must see live act, while The Summer Sound System tour promises good vibes to local audiences.
The Beautiful Girls will be play on January 4 at Club Sapphire, Merimbula with doors open at 8pm, and it is an event for over 18s.
Tickets are $28.60 and can be bought from Oztix.
