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…
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…
This is a song by our guitarist Keith. He doesn't get a chance to jam with us as much since he moved to New York. He and I had a lot of fun working on this simple tune, and it makes me miss times long gone.

"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…

I remember a long time a go, there was a band called "It's a Beautiful Day". They had a song called "White Bird".
I don't know why, but this song reminds me of that sound. I love it.
Very retro sounding guitar too.

A very well known traditional Irish song. When I was looking into learning it, I found out that there are several versions of the lyrics, which is interesting. In some versions the singer shoots the Captain and goes to jail for it. In other…
My final project for this semester. Done!!!!
We had to write a short piece for 2-5 players. I chose violin and piano.
The piece also had to represent what we hope to learn and what kind composer we hope to be in four years. (I almost called…

Done by the Blind Boys of Alabama and Johnny Cash but NEVER like this. The base for this song was constructed from home made samples, including the sound of a 9mm Sig Sauer being fired. Bass was my first attempt at using a synth (Massive).
My apologies to Ray Willie Hubbard. This sounds nothing like his great version of this. All instruments played by me, in studio.
This was before I discovered the usefulness of a pop filter.
Here is my contribution to the latest song writing challenge posted in the Alonetone Forum.

Imagining my band imaginary band in my head on one of those 60's type music shows. Just having fun with this one nothing too serious lyrically like solving world peace or finding high consciousness ..although it really is a true story.
A track coming off my new Mixtape "Sounds of an Unknown Stoner" that is prod. and written by myself! I basically speak on how unfair the police can be and how I just want to be chill and high.
Comments on The Proods's stuff
Very creative idea for a song. I think they are all singing from the heavens now.
Now here's a cult Proods classic to be sure! Who knew Jonestown had a choir. Your creativity is awesome as always!
Creepy and funny. Retro feel to it. Love the vocals and guitar.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm jealous of that guitar sound. I mean How ? Wonderful.
Drinking rum on an imagined twisted Disney themed ride. nice !
Very clever and funny! Nice one guys.
Having fun while you make music is what it's all about guys! Love the vocal mix, simple tune but great message and very catchy too!
I like the male/female harmony combo best
Very 60's vibe to this. Great stuff!
Sounds like a 60 song to me. I like it. Groovy!
Like it. Nice song!
Brian should write more....

Love the blend of your vocals on this one. Great song fabulous Proods.
Refreshing . . . . You have a great style.
You're guy/girl songs remind me of Nino Tempo & April Stevens. It's kind of an obscure reference, but if you look them up you'll see what I mean.
Hi Heather and Joe, this I a nice one! It's sounds a little bit different from your days at the Middle East. I'd love to see another Prood show! -Jose
Velvet underground is alive!
Lovely piece. enjoyed!
Groovy.

SUPERB! I'm downloading this mother!
Great voice.
Love this...soulful and artistic.
Bluesy! PERFECT!

Really great. Reminds me of a track from a John Hughes movie. Bass guitar is perfect!
Well done.
