The Proods

This song was written after I had watched a documentary about Jonestown, which featured music from their choir. They were very talented and I couldn’t help wondering if any of them had survived. I’d like to think that there were a couple of ‘em that grabbed their guitars and said, “Let’s get…read more

Once in a nightmare
I knew you then
I think we were related,
I’m not sure
maybe we were strangers.
We’d look in windows and climb
the trees that grew,
and if it’d rained outside
we’d take off our shoes.
And when I’d see you
I would pretend I was a friend
although I knew…
we were…read more

“Castaway of Love” is a song by Brian, one of our guitar players who until now has been shy about sharing his talent. When he told me the title of this song I was expecting a 1920’s style megaphone crooner melody, but was happily surprised by what he came up with.

Another tune about an inappropriate school teacher

Miles Away is a very simple guitar riff and lyrics that match, but it’s a song that came from the heart of one of the band’s members. It’s kind of a tune about a newly married couple…like most Prood songs it was recorded after one or two rehearsals. The banter at the beginning was The Proods…read more

My son recorded this.

“Blast the Stereo” written by Henry Ferrara-Brown

Well what if my new house is spooky ?

We try to include a song about a donkey on each record. This is a factually accurate tale of Romulus, the world’s tallest donkey.
lyrics
Romulus is 12 years old and 17 hands
At 5 foot 8 he’s taller than Oklahoma Sam
The world’s tallest donkey, Guinness put it in their book
If you don…read more

The last place you can go in the time zone is Howland Island.
lyrics
Can’t get this out of my head
The last words that you said
Tried to make you stay
Still you went away

You can ride out to the last place on earth
And see the edge of time
When does a day really end?
Find out…read more

Well what if my new house is spooky ?

A modern Blues:
Click , and then wait for it !

The last place you can go in the time zone is Howland Island.

The last words that you said
Tried to make you stay
Still you went away

You can ride out to the last place on earth

Summertime in Boston, and this little tune is about how it goes by way too fast. Some hilarious chatter between the guys before and after they kick of a pseudo-psychedelic groove that I hope you will enjoy.

Lyrics to this tune are purposefully ignorant, although I’d be lying if I told you that there isn’t real life emotions in this one.
