The Chantays

Press Release 2007

Jim Facey, executive producer of Jim Facey Productions says that few bands ever have a hit song, fewer write and record a standard in the music industry. In 1963, THE CHANTAYS accomplished both. Their number one hit single, Pipeline, can consistently be heard on radio stations worldwide and continue to be used in a variety of motion pictures including "Twelve Monkeys," television productions "Quantum Leap," "Picket Fences," and countless TV and Radio commercials.

The CHANTAY sound continued with the release of their Pipeline and Two Sides Of The Chantays albums, which included such gems as Blunderbus, El Conquistador, and Riders In The Sky. Their songs have been on the charts on every continent in the world. The Chantays were responsible for making surf music an international success.

In 1994 the release of THE CHANTAYS Next Set CD rekindled the public’s interest and again gained THE CHANTAYS recognition in the music industry. The CHANTAYS and Pipeline are featured in two areas of The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1996 The Chantays gained further recognition for their accomplishments by being inducted into the Hollywood Rock Walk. Also, Pipeline, and a new song Killer Dana, were used in The Rhino Records Cowabunga boxed -set and Jenny McCarthy’s "MTV’s Singled Out" surf compilation CD.

THE CHANTAYS, with Bob Spickard and Brian Carman, along with original drummer Bob Welch and long-time members Ricky Lewis and Brian Nussle, continue to play and expand on their original surf sounds. November 1997 marked the worldwide release of Waiting For The Tide, by THE CHANTAYS. They continue to thrill long-time fans and to introduce the innovative CHANTAY sound to new fans attending their concerts and through worldwide distribution of their CD’S in 2004.
