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…

Ok, I know that it appears that The Proods have been posting so grim music of late, but this song started out as an homage to one of the Lady-Proods, and just kinda got away from us.
More stuff following….bright, chipper love songs.

We haven't been this excited about a track in a while.
Yeah, we're a little bit angst-y I'm afraid...musically anyway.\A special hello to our Alonetone friends from the grand production days...so glad to see y'all are still making music!

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,

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…
The wonderful MN songwriters helped take a bite out of the January cold on Tuesday night this week and added some amazing depth to Singing in the Silence - We were as usual, recording on a little TASCAM around my coffee table. We had lots of…

The old hippie in me has tried to write a Christmas peace song ....I had a couple of hours today with Seb at pre-school so i just got on with it...i think the sentiment is there but the verses do need a polish but hey! ive ran out of time so this…
a.k.a. "The Ballad of Big Celine"
What ever happened to ballads - stories told in song? The internet and TV have reduced attention spans, and long songs a la Don McLean, Harry Chapin, and Gordon Lightfoot have fallen by the wayside. If you…
Wrote this song yesterday after another long week of crummy news in the world and had the good fortune of the Minnesota song writers in my living room tonight to help me bring it to life. Greg Connor - on the cigar beat box, Colin Walterson on…
Comments on The Proods's stuff
This sounds so good very groovy - doors vibes 😊
Love the new stuff, guys
It’s groovy alright, a great 60’s vibe. Mix the Kinks with the Dead and you get YOU!
Hhhhaaaa! Love this!!
Another beauty
Oh those lyrics!!!! Such vitriol mixed with the upbeat tone - delightfully dead but still living indeed! Well done!!!
Heyyy, nice to hear from you all again. Excellent song! It's very robust and autumnal. One of your better tracks (if not best) I think.
🔥
it can be lonely summertime alone
Oh my dear Proods! Such angst! I love this. The melancholy beach vibe is perfect.
:-) Hey Steve, I play bass too. Cool to hear your work. Likin' it.
Love the groove, and this is GREAT writing!
Good vibez
Cool old style rock vibe.
OMG! How fun to hear your wonderful music again!!! Love this one. Hope all the Proods are well in this world.
I like this....it's like a mix between the Dead Milkmen and the Monkees!
Hi Proods!
This was a good one.
~Hi Proods~
For a moment I was back in 1966. Good work!

Cool.
Great...simply great.
Woo
Cool musical affectations that blend nicely together. I'll be back to listen again.
Perfect. Don't change a thing!
yowza! Count me in!!!
This is very punk rock.
Shazaam!
Reminds me of Chad and Jeremy.
Great vocals.
Darn you, this is GOOD! Harmonies are perfect, and I like the words so much that I spent 15 minutes reading about Spaghettification on Wikipedia.
You've got great range in material!
I like the youthful feel of this song. It reminds me of a brighter time.
Yikes and WOW!
:D
This makes me want to explore the melancholy places in my mind.
Hahaha! This has to be a true story.
A new direction? Love it!
This would make perfect credit crawl for a John Hughes movie. Very 80's.
I like this. It would make perfect rainy day music.
