From Southern California, this obscure five-man, one-woman pop-folk-rock group adapted to the folk-rock craze, with their folk roots showing a dominant blend with rock. They were in the same vein as the We Five and Mamas & Papas but with a tighter blend in the production. The harmonies and their bent toward bittersweet melodies also distinguished them from the others. Their best song, the original "Rising Sun", had an uncharacteristically gutsy fuzz guitar line and saw some regional airplay. The Deep Six started out as a San Diego folk trio, evolving into a bigger folk-rockish band after they became the house band for the La Mesa folk club the Land Of Oden. "Rising Sun" made number three in Los Angeles, where the group based themselves for part of their short career.
