Bombon
ALEX'S BAR
L.A. has produced and attracted some of the most happening female musical talent around: Anita O'Day, Joan Jett, Ella Mae Morse, Exene, Carolina Cotton, Poison Ivy Rorschach. The three gals who do business as Bombon are no exception. Truth to tell, they're daughters of San Pedro, home to a seaside rock & roll subculture all its own, and Bombon, naturally enough, trades in that most favorite of folk-music styles, the surf instrumental. No vapid beach bunnies these, Bombon display artful aggression, a sweetly salty, trashy expertise and a flair for material that's as atmospherically evocative as it is ineffably frugtastic. That's an enviable combination, and they pull it off with a maddeningly refined natural grace. —Jonny Whiteside
