Local (S.F.) one-man band doing strummy pop tunes with often odd lyrics. Reminds me of a more “rock” & twang version of Sparks or even Jonathan Richman, especially in the vocals. Altogether, simple and direct songs that are quite enjoyable. A lot of tunes that should be in a David Lynch movie or something very similar. (((1))) Repetitive beat, starts with carnival barker/snake oil preacher voice then builds into a slinky little strummy & swaggery rock tune. ((((2)))) Theremin, clap beats with a few quick stops. Chorus mixes T. Rex/Sparks and Bowie. ((((3)))) Twangy, springy and fun. (((4))) Slow, swampy but a little too repetitive ((((5)))) Twangy, early r n’ r via sarcastic gospel vibe, Very catchy. (((6))) Begins with (you guess it) chirping birds. Laid back folk & strums and distorted response chorus. ((((7)))) Steady, vocal centered with basic ‘doot-doot’ chords. (((((8))))) Ramblin’ strummy rock & surfy instrumental. ((((9)))) Shimmering chords, great vocals with occasional organ sound. (((10)) Swampy rock kinda close to Johnathan Richman. (((11))) Doot-doot-doot, twang-twang cover of the Leadbelly classic. | ||
