Holy Spicoli is a project that took two years to compile the current lineup. They went through several drummers as well as lead singers before finding the perfect group of musicians. This is the music they all grew up to and still love today and you will be able to tell how excited they are by the performance that they give. High energy, party & dance is a great way to sum it all up. Take a look at the diverse list of songs on the media page for a better understanding.
