   About Aqua Velvets
The Aqua Velvets are one of the premier surf instrumental bands in the world. Originating in San Francisco in the early 1990's, the band released its 1st cd in 1992 on the indie Riptide/Heyday Records, and was then signed to Atlantic Records in 1995 with the release of the groundbreaking Surfmania cd. The Avs are currently with Milan Records which is a soundtrack label with Warner Music. The beautiful Nomad cd and masterpeice Guitar Noir are both on Milan. The band has released 10 cds, and bandleader guitarist Miles Corbin has released several solo projects as well. Their music has been featured in many Film and TV soundtracks. The AVs have toured the West Coast extensively and appeared on the East Coast as well, headlining and sharing bills with artists such as Chris Isaak, Dick Dale, and the legendary Beach Boys. The Aqua Velvets sound is a blend of surf, latin rythms, blues, lounge exotica, and psycedelic jazz. AQUA VELVETS AND MILES CORBIN CDS FOR SALE AT WWW.AQUAVELVETS.COM!!
