  • The Atlantics est un groupe australien de surf music et de garage rock, formé en 1961 à Sydney. Auteurs du tube Bombora (n°1 des charts australiens à sa sortie), ils sont considérés comme l'un des premiers grands groupes populaires en Australie, et l'un des meilleurs groupes de surf music de tous les temps. Ils furent aussi l'un des premiers groupes australiens à écrire leurs propres titres. Toujours en activité malgré les multiples changements de formation, le groupe continue à composer depuis 2000, de nouveaux morceaux. (fr)

In 2013 the group celebrated the 50th Anniversary of their first album, Bombora and the eponymous single that was their first to chart. A European tour was organised to mark the occasion. 'Bombora' was added to the National Film and Sound Archive's Sounds of Australia registry in 2013. Note: There was a rock band in the Boston (Massachusetts) area called the Atlantics in the mid-1970s and early 1980s; songs of theirs included "Weekend", "When You're Young", and "Lonelyhearts". They had an album on ABC Records called Big City Rock. (en)
  • The Atlantics, australiskt surfrock-band. Gruppen var omåttligt populär i sitt hemland och nådde 1963 toppen på de australiska listorna med "Bombora", och fick också stora framgångar med uppföljaren "The Crusher". De försvann från listorna när brittiska artister började ta över 1964. Under senare delen av 1960-talet lämnade gruppen surfstilen för ett mer pop-inspirerat sound. (sv)
