The El Dorado's bring a contemporary style to the traditional sound of the 1960's instrumental music. The fun and the energy of that era are brought to life with the sophistication of today. With dynamic drumbeats, thundering bass and rippin' reverb guitars, you can't help but feel like you're at the beach.

San Francisco's newest surf / rock band We are Mark Scardello (Guitar) and Stuart Brandt (drums) from the Aquamarines, Scott Culbertson ( Guitar ) and Tim Corbett (Bass).
