The Fender IV were an American surf rock band of the 1960s. The Fender IV were started up in Baltimore, by guitarist Randy Holden. Although almost prevented by a bumble bee, he successfully moved the band to Southern California in 1963, in order to play for a more receptive audience. Their music was strongly influenced by Dick Dale, and The Ventures. When the popularity for surf music decreased their style changed to a vocal based sound, and they changed name to The Sons of Adam, bestowed upon them by the record producer Kim Fowley.

  • The Fender IV waren eine amerikanische Surfband der 1960er Jahre. Der Gitarrist gründete die Band 1962 in Baltimore, zog aber 1963 ins südliche Kalifornien um, um für aufnahmebereiteres Publikum zu spielen. Als Mitte des Jahrzehnts die Beatles-Welle nach Amerika hinüberschwappte und instrumentale Surfmusik nicht mehr populär war, wurden die Fender IV in The Sons of Adam umgetauft und machten fortan Musik mit Gesang.

When the popularity for surf music decreased their style changed to a vocal based sound, and they changed name to The Sons of Adam, bestowed upon them by the record producer Kim Fowley. In 2016, Randy Holden was contacted by Matt Quilter to play at the "Surf 101 Convention", Alpine Village, Torrence CA. The result was Randy reforming the Fender IV group with original rhythm guitarist, Joe Kooken (aka: Jac Ttanna). The additional musicians for the show were Matt Quilter on bass and Dusty Watson (who has played for Dick Dale) on drums. Subsequently, a DVD of the concert was released. Additionally, as a result of the "Surf 101 Convention" show, Randy was invited to play the Surfer Joe Summer Festival in Livorno, Italy, June 22 through June 25 2017. (en)
