watch out for utah if you play scan song. lotta crappy stations. i know it's not on the coast but i'm just speaking generally.
back to recommendations. some of this stuff is not too beachy but is either good driving music or california related.
ambulance ltd is catchy upbeat indie rock.
pavement is very good too, coming out of stockton, CA.
grandaddy, modesto's finest, is a good suggestion from earlier.
calexico has a southwestern sound.
autolux is a great emerging rock band from los angeles. if nothing else, check these guys out.
black heart procession, from san diego, is a somewhat mellower suggestion.
beck's new cd isn't out yet but we've all heard it. seems like it would go well at a beach party. and he is from LA.
herb alpert...now there is some sunny stuff.
curtis mayfield (superfly) is another respectable choice.
