The basic musical ensemble of our four-part-harmony style is the barbershop quartet, consisting of a lead, singing a vocal part which generally carries the tune/melody; a bass, the part which provides the lowest harmony line; a tenor, the part which harmonizes above the lead; and a baritone, the part that completes the chord with the note not being sung by the lead, bass, or tenor singers. The baritone can sing either above or below the lead singer.

The Surftones have established many quartets in its decades of operation, currently active are:

• Shore Thing
• Take the Fifth
