| Biography: | |
|
Formed in Sierra Madre, California in the early 1990s, the Summer Hits comprised vocalist/bassist Tartarex (born Rex Thompson), guitarist Daddy D. (Darren Radermaker) and drummer Joshua "Warm Summer Vibe" Schwartz. A series of noisy, sun-drenched indie-pop singles followed over the next several years, all of which were compiled in 1997 on Beaches and Canyons 1992-96, a collection issued on the small X-Mas label. Both Radermaker and Schwartz were also in the similarly-inclined Further. Biography by Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide |
