He worked as editor for SURFING Magazine from ‘03-’06, and in ’08 he co-founded a surfboard and apparel company called SUPERbrand.

Music Featured on “Surf Life”

CarterRollins

Members of the surf-rock duo CarterRollins, Justin Carter and Johnny Rollins, use the power of vocal harmonies to deliver a full band sound. Itʼs this formula that makes it easy to see why their sound is turning so many heads. CarterRollinsʼ song “Peace Bomb” is the theme song for Halogen TVʼs “The Surf Life.” CarterRollins celebrated the start of 2012 and the release of their self-titled EP with a heavy touring schedule throughout Australia and North America. Playing shows at the historic Red Dog (Canada), the prestigious Hotel Café (Hollywood), and even along side “Mr Pipeline” Jerry Lopez himself, the duo enjoyed spreading their infectious flavor of surf rock and soul. www.carterrollins.com

Xavier Rudd

A multi-instrumentalist, world class surfer, animal rights activist and nature conservationist, Xavier Rudd’s widespread appeal transcends genres and categories, creating an atmosphere that Aquarian Weekly describes as “easy, feel-good listening that musically keeps you interested for its entirety.” With an array of guitars, yidakis (didgeridoos), stomp box and percussion, Rudd re-introduced a lot of Australians to the sounds and stories of the land’s original owners, while introducing the rest of the world to an entirely new sound altogether. And, over the course of a decade, he has taken this sound to every corner of the globe; producing seven studio albums, two live albums, multiple ARIA nominations and a global fan-base of likeminded souls. www.xavierrudd.com
