The MN coffee table is back!!!! We have a new member too - Joel Schaubert, who joined Mark Lofgren and Greg Connor - veterans of the coffee table. Once again we wrote this song and recorded it in my backyard coffee table (hence some of the wind…

This is my first collaboration with the talented SLKrell! He had a reggae song called "Rancho Raggae" posted a couple of weeks ago in need of a lyric, so I asked If I could write some for it, and poof whala!! Here it is! Thanks Slkrell for the…
We decided to share one more piece of cherry pie! Thanks Greg Connor for this now epic song. Thanks to Paul for his beautiful music. Always a ton of fun to collaborate with!!!
Update: Paul took the first version and made it even better. So impressed with his talents. Thanks everyone for your kind words on the original. I know you'll like this version even more!
I was listening to some of Paul Lennon's great…
I had a wish to sing along with Greg, so he offered me a piece of his Cherry Pie to sing along with... I added a few other bits here and there as well. Thanks Greg!!! This was a fun one for me... added some piano and a teeny bit of percussion....

I read recently that the term "gaslighting" was the number one search in Merriam Webster's Dictionary this year. So this song is dedicated to all of us who have stood up to that over the years... especially my very besties... you know who you…

Outstanding and thought provoking. Gaslighting has permeated our society lately and finally it looks like some of the people responsible might be getting the recognition they deserve.

Inspiring and very moving song, Colleen. I have some friends who have been through this disturbing experience of gaslighting. I will get them to hear this song, and I know they will love it!

We haven't been together in several months, but we had pent up creativity, and then were inspired by Bill Maher.... who gave us the hook.... "Humans Aren't Good People"
Welcome back to the MN Coffee table - Colleen, Greg and Mark!!!!
Humans…

I hope Brian (one of us Proods) will forgive me for posting this before we could get together to work on it further. He first played it for me a few months ago and I've been obsessively tweaking it every chance I could get.
I like to imagine…
AAAHHHH!!!!! Love that distinctive Proods sound. I have a dream someday we all get together for the biggest jam. Wouldn't that be fun! Thanks for posting this!
Didn't want to write this song … I figured there were one-thousand songwriters (here in north Texas alone) that were stuck at home and writing goofy songs about the virus. But, it wouldn't leave me alone, so I recorded it to get it out of my head.
Okay.... your inner hillbilly has clearly been dying to get out!!! The fiddleheads are almost ripe for picking and Mama’s reappearing in my dreams!! Best Lyrics ever! What kind of moonshine are you brewing down on Labradoodle lane these days?
I love Wilsun's 2020 RPM album "Departure", so I decided to cover it (yes, the whole album), but with a twist. I found some bits to be repetitive, so I removed them. I wrote down the lyrics and chords, and promptly ignored the originals, making…
Well the virus has my friend and music partner in Krakow Poland sheltering in place but we are using the time to write and record..here is our latest...we tried to write in the style of Motown...check it out ... all music and production by Art…
Ok... This made me so happy to hear new music from you!!!! Love the style. Made me want to get up and do my "shelter in place dance!" Your voice sounds great. Fun lyrics too!!! Thanks for the awesome pick-me-up!!!!
One more listen from me here in snowy MN. And still love your voice as always. Thanks so much for all the feedback you've given me on my songs! So appreciated!!!!
Another groovy tack from the Proods. Chad the Bad is the name of a terrible monster movie we shot back in ourMass Art days. It's been kicking around for too many years, so we're finally putting it out there, hoping you enjoy it more than my fellow…
I hope I don't meet Chad the Bad in a dark alley anytime, even though he sounds like a pal in the end... Love that guitar jam! So fun to hear new music from the wonderful Proods! Hope you all are well.
C I been riding this trail for F way too C long
I Am picked up G peculiar C ways
F A short conversation G is C all that F I know
Cause I C haven’t got G too much to C say
I C remember the sweetheart that F I left C behind
Or Am maybe…
We wait, we count days, hours, minutes to the expected. With desire, with anxiety, with apprehension, with calm. Do we live during the count, in the intervals between events that we're waiting for, one after another? Probably, something unconscious…
Reading a book
From a tabula rasa, with the title that appeared at birth, and until the end I am reading the book. A book of life, with color and black and white pictures, with joyful or banal or miserable text, with unfinished verses and some…
We have that same Grumman! We keep having to put pine tar on the rivets as it’s a leaker after 50 years in Northern MN. I agree! It’s the kind of thing that shorter people do! Awesome song 💚

Olive this tune. I did like 3 versions of it. Just couldn't get enough.
I'm stalking your music. You've progressed so much since we collaborated.
Playing the Uke now? Awesome. I built one last year from a kit. I wanted to see if I was interested. I'm a learning boy :)
You did and it was great
First class song , a Big ' Well Done ' to all who stand up to Bullies .......
Outstanding and thought provoking. Gaslighting has permeated our society lately and finally it looks like some of the people responsible might be getting the recognition they deserve.
Another beautiful, meaningful song. Colleen. Love you much? Mom

Oh I love this one! Perfect for a big ‘ol singalong!
Some really amazing songwriting here. Such compelling lyrics, and I love how the vocals build. An instant favorite for me. Thanks for sharing!
Lovely chorus - such a great combo of the lyrics and the melody.
OMG! What great story telling... Now I know this never happened to you :-) :-) :-) Beautiful!!!
Magnificent! I could have this on repeat all day long.
Like watching nature’s beauty unfold during an autumn sunrise. This is amazing.

Especially the part about the snacks!
Okay this is really awesome!!
