Fuzzysurf's "Don't Go Overboard"

Set sail on a musical voyage
filled with theatrics, thrills and aquatic adventure!

Just ignore the seasick and keep moving forward...


Directed by Tommy Simms, Fuzzysurf's "Don't Go Overboard" sees the indie rockers stage a theatrical performance set to the tune off their double LP, "Chameleons." From shark attacks to siren songs, Fuzzysurf stays the course through their seafaring escapades, delivering a maritime matinee that's a true whale of a tale.

"You can always count of Fuzzysurf to release some of the most inventive, ambitious, and all-around impressive music videos in Milwaukee ... this honestly could be their best one yet."
- Tyler Maas, Milwaukee Record
