The Malibooz

Vocal surf music group founded 1964 by Walter Egan and John Zambetti. Tom Scarp was an early drummer. In 1964-65, the band released a single and an EP. With the advent of psychedelic rock, the group added a female lead vocalist (Annie McLoone) and re-branded as Sageworth and Drum. The band was headquartered in Washington, D.C. since most of the group were undergrads at Georgetown University. After graduation, Egan and Zambetti pursued separate musical endeavors but still kept in touch. The 1981 reunion album for Rhino made the group a functioning entity again and they have continued live gigs as The Malibooz since. The Malibooz are Walter Egan, John Zambetti, Tom Moncrieff, Scott Monahan and Ted Zambetti.
