Artist Bio:
Jan & Dean were a popular American rock duo consisting of Jan Berry and Dean Torrence. They found success in the early 1960s with their surf music and car songs. Jan Berry was the primary songwriter and producer of the duo, while Dean Torrence provided vocals and occasional songwriting contributions. Together, they released a string of hits including "Surf City," "The Little Old Lady from Pasadena," and "Dead Man's Curve." Jan & Dean's music captured the essence of the California surf culture and became synonymous with the sound of the era.

Despite this, Jan & Dean left a lasting impact on the music industry with their catchy tunes and laid-back, beach-inspired sound.
