Jimmy Dale is son of famous Surf-guirarist Dick Dale. Jimmy is often referred to as The Prince Of Surf Guitar. However, he's also been playing drums since he was twelve and a half months old.



Jimmy was once sponsored by the Zildjian cymbal company as the youngest drummer in its history. His father Dick Dale proudly explained in 1995:

"When I finish a show, I don't do an encore. I just played music for an hour and a half, they know what I sound like. I sit on the stage and meet the people for a couple of hours, sign autographs. While I'm doing that, Jimmy gets on the drums. At first people are like, "how cute, a three year old is gonna bang on the drums." But my boy can play! So he comes with me when I tour. (...) He's either Damien [from The Omen] or a man in a boy's body. People freak out when they watch him. He's no-nonsense. He's better than some drummers I've had."
