The Fabulous Plank-Tones play the indigenous surf and instrumental sounds of their native Southern California. The band hails from the south-west suburbia known as Glendale, where they receive a direct, though long traveled, ocean breeze that fights its way from the Santa Monica Pier, down the old Route 66, parting the smog from L.A., continuing between the San Fernando and San Gabriel mountain ranges, finally arriving at the garage of drummer Art Chianello. And from the deep sea air it is where the four piece combo derives thier inspiration. The Plank-Tones were originally formed in 1984 by brothers Marty, Jim and Kevin Tippens on guitars and bass along with drummer Art Chianello. Jon Green joined on bass and guitar in 1998, while Kevin attended to his new family commitments. Over the years, they have appeared on several surf music compilation CD's including "Fiberglass Jungle", "That's New Pussycat" and "Better than Average Weekend". They can most often be found performing at various beach venues including the renowned Huntington Beach International Surfing Museum, Rusty's Surf Ranch, and Long Beach's Foothill Club
