Simpler Days is a ballad by drummer-Matt.
While I was mixing it the words caught me off guard and the song stirred up some emotional stuff that I'm hoping might come through for the wider listening public.
Hi gang.
The Proods are back....Brian at the helm this time.
Our methodology is thus....one of the 4 of us introduce a song, and then we'll bang out a finished track in under an hour with as few over-dubs as possible. This one we put some effort…

Agree with jimgoodinmusic... Byrds tone sneaks out on the guitar and percussion. Would love to find out who all of your influences are for the band.
In response to your hopefully slightly tongue-in-cheek comment about drum clarity to TonyCee... I always found letting the mics mug the kit like 3" away from everything and then an aggressive high pass filter got everything as clear as possible without muddle. That's exactly what professionals don't do... :D
Anyway, great as always.

Hey gang! It’s us again, The Proods…thousands of followers worldwide!
Here’s another track by Brian…channeling his inner metal, though we all tend to swing towards 60’s pop.
It was fun working on this, though I prefer the OTHER 1960’s style…
-Mrs. Groovy Sunshine-
Lyrics…
As the shadows stretch across your dark and lonely room
and your record player fails to chase away your gloom
I want to hold you tight, and tuck you into bed at night
I just hope that you’re alright, and I can…

Tranquil guitar and a voice like a glove wrapped in velvet.
I remember Mrs. Groovy Sunshine from Phys Ed. class. She was quite a beauty in her day and we needed sunglasses to feel comfortable looking at her. Unfortunately, because of the co2 emissions in the atmosphere, over time, she became unbearable and I had to drop her class, much preferring Mrs. Cool'n Cloudy.

This has a nice country joe groove and feel to it and I love the melody. It would help to share the lyrics they aren't really standing out enough for these old ears... not a criticism just sayin' I'm old. :) Thank you for sharing as always.
More groovy vibes from your friends here in Boston!😘
Lyrics-
Emily Cline couldn’t make up her mind
Whether to stay or to leave me behind
She’s etched in my memory permanently
But she couldn’t decide what she felt about me
They say…

Another Proods Rocker from Brian. I love his lead guitar on this one…sort of reminds me of Steely Dan, or some other classic rock tune.
More great stuff on the way….also, be sure to check out our remixed tracks.
The circling of life
The ability to find your way
Like a compass in the night
And the coming of another day
It’s like when the stars align
You’ve been given just a glimpse of truth
And you think that you might find
The Optimism held in…
DOG PARK
Everybody meet me down at the DOG PARK
If you need me I’ll be down at the DOG PARK
Sunday afternoon and I’m bound for the DOG PARK
Everybody gets along at the DOG PARK
White and black and brown at the DOG PARK
Nobody’s looking…
I am happy to post this first rough version of a song I wrote yesterday after a really long creative drought. It cracked me up because I'd woken up with this idea on my mind first thing after watching a stupid TV show the night before where…
another for the RPM ....Live in the living room
I came to the city
A G D FsharpM A
I CAME TO THIS CITY
I WAS WANTING IT ALL
I CAME TO THIS CITY
TO HAVE MYSELF A BALL
I CAME TO THE CITY TO SHOW THEM HOW WELL THAT I COULD SING
I CAME…
I wrote this song while watching a beautiful snowfall a couple of winters ago - right after the 2016 election. I was feeling a lot of emotions at the time, and writing this one helped out.
I decided to record it in the studio, and we're almost…
OH YEAH
SOON AS YOUR BORN YOUR MADE TO FEEL SMALL
THEY TAKE YOUR TIME INSTEAD OF GIVE YOU IT ALL
THE FRUSTRATION THE PAIN YOU FEEL
NO ONE SEES IT SO IT CAN’T BE REAL
THEY CONTROL YOU AT HOME AND AT SCHOOL
THEY SEND YOU CRAZY WITH SO…

I like monster movies. No idea what you’re talking about, but it’s a good mix.

Soft and subtle vibe!

This is really cool. I don't know how I'd describe it if I had to....fusion tech-jazz? It's like great alt bands of the 80's in hell.
Yes...amazing, again
Love it!
Great cover!
Great harmonies....you've got a little Neil Young thing going here.
I can't help but think of Jim Varney!
AMAZING!
Just visiting my favorite song on Alonetone!
