Artist Bio:
Jan & Dean were an American rock duo consisting of Jan Berry and Dean Torrence. They found success in the early 1960s with their surf rock music, often featuring catchy harmonies and upbeat melodies. The duo's most popular songs include "Surf City," "The Little Old Lady from Pasadena," and "Dead Man's Curve," which all reached the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Jan & Dean were known for their close vocal harmonies and their association with the California surf rock scene.
Jan & Dean's career was tragically cut short in 1966 when Jan Berry was involved in a near-fatal car accident that left him with brain damage. Despite this setback, the duo continued to perform sporadically, with Dean Torrence taking on a larger role as Jan's recovery limited his involvement in the music industry. Jan & Dean were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2008, recognizing their contribution to the surf rock genre and their enduring popularity among fans of 1960s music.
