− | The Hollow Grinders (briefly called "the Sandhoppers", and playing their first gig in October 1996 as "the Blublockers") proclaimed themselves "New Zealand's best and only instrumental surf band", a claim few could deny. | + | The Hollow Grinders (briefly called "the Sandhoppers", and playing their first gig in October 1996 as "the Blublockers") proclaimed themselves "New Zealand's best and only instrumental surf band", a claim few could deny. They started as a trio of [[Biff Bangle]], [[Andrew Dean|Eddie Hodad]] and [[Dean Ballinger|Dirk Thrust]]. Later, [[Gordon Bassett|Hank 'Family Man' Special]] joined to make the band a four-piece. Line-up changes have continued, with ''Biff Bangle'' allegedly faking his own death to avoid further contractual obligations to the group, seeing the addition of [[Stan Jagger|Otis Uhh!]]. [[Greg Locke|Rick O'Kutt]] has also replaced ''Hank 'Family Man' Special''. |
The Hollow Grinders have two CDs, [[The Hollow Grinders Dig Chicks]] and [[Surfin' Taniwha]], one 7" record, [[Bradley's Dunny Crouch]], and several other releases. In 1999, Californian surf band ''The Neptunas'' released a song dedicated to ''The Hollow Grinders'' called [[Thee Phantom 5ive|Hollow Grinders are Go!]]. Significant gigs played by the band include [[Circle Jerk 2018]]. | The Hollow Grinders have two CDs, [[The Hollow Grinders Dig Chicks]] and [[Surfin' Taniwha]], one 7" record, [[Bradley's Dunny Crouch]], and several other releases.
