The Fender IV were an American surf rock band of the 1960s.
The Fender IV were started up in Baltimore, by guitarist Randy Holden. He moved the band to Southern California in 1963, in order to play for a more receptive audience. Their music was strongly influenced by Dick Dale, and The Ventures. When the popularity for surf music decreased their style changed to a vocal based sound, and they changed name to Sons of Adam, bestowed upon them by the record producer Kim Fowley.
