Music and surfing have a long, storied history together. From Dick Dale and The Beach Boys to Momentum and early nineties pop-punk to modern day video edits coupled with everything from hip-hop to electronica – surf cinema and culture are both shaped and swayed by music of the times.

And now, a new film examines that intersection between surfing and music with one influential band in mind: the Grateful Dead. Fire on the Mountain, the latest offering from directors Chris Benchetler and Tyler Hamlet in connection with Teton Gravity Research, follows Rob Machado as he surfs in the remote waters of the North Pole and Indonesia while wearing a psychedelic, neon-lit skeleton wetsuit. Also featured are top names in snowboarding and skiing, like Jeremy Jones, Danny Davis, Michelle Parker, and others.

The entire soundtrack of the film? You guessed it, the Grateful Dead.

“Grateful Dead and action sports have always been kindred spirits, both celebrating life and the beauty of experimental improvisation,” says Rhino President Mark Pinkus, who also oversees Grateful Dead Properties. “After years of hearing many action sports athletes cite the Dead as their soundtrack of choice, it’s exhilarating to see these worlds come to life together on screen in Fire On The Mountain. Add in Bill Walton’s iconic voice on commentary and you have a one-of-a-kind experience, not unlike going to a Grateful Dead live show.”
