| It's almost here! "Spoonfed" is almost in the mastering stages and is slated for a November 2008 release. Some of the songs are over 5 years old, so I'm very anxious to release them on CD finally. Here is the second track off of "Spoonfed". | Mustard
Burp (Joe Falardeau) |
|
| We've been working on a six song demo for a band called "My Last Breath" that include an amazing singer named Leo and drummer Mike Pecora. | My
Last Breath (Leo, Mike Pecora and Guests) |
|
| Another project we've been working on is a song for an artist in the Rochester area, Joe Brucato. He wrote a great song called "Smile" for his upcoming album. The coolest thing about this project was that Tony Levin (John Lennon, King Crimson, Peter Gabriel, ect.) is playing bass on the song. | Smile (Joe Brucato) |
|
| Listen to Bruce Tambs 6th solo album entitled "Places". All instruments played by Bruce himself and the fresh ears of Brad Ayers tackled the chores of mixing and mastering. | Places (Bruce Tambs) |
|
| Well, Falardeau and Tambs are currently working on their much anticipated 4th Studio album together. After riding the wave of success of "2 Way TV", they thought it was time to give their listeners something other than bootlegs to latch onto. Here is the first recording from the yet to be titled LP. Bruce on all guitars, bass, drums, chorus piano and finale piano. | Any
Day Now (Falardeau/Tambs) |
|
| At the request of Rob "Spewmeister", I tried to write a grunge song with lots of anger and angst. Didn't happen, but it is my first song with me on rhythm guitar and no keyboards. Jim Pfeiffer on bass and lead guitar. | Destruct |
|
| Two hours of my life gone forever. | Leave
It (Intro) (Horn/Rabin/Squire) |
|
| This is a second version of December 1963 (Oh What A Night) with me on all vocals, keyboards and synths. My nephew Joe on bass and guitar. | December
1963 (Oh What A Night) (Bob Gaudio/Judy Parker) |
|
| My nephews Joe and Evan came into town from Ohio and we did a cover version of the Four Season's classic. This is the original version with both nephews on vocals and Joe on bass and guitar and myself on all keyboards and synths. I've never laughed so much while recording a song. | December
1963 (Oh What A Night) (Bob Gaudio/Judy Parker) |
|
| This is a song that I started about 5 years ago. I finally rewrote the lyrics and created a new melody. This is the vocal and keyboard version. The full version will be mixed and released on my new album called "Spoonfed" which I'm trying to finish up for 2007. | St.
Thomas Square (Joe Falardeau) |
|
| Mr. Bruce Tambs has just completed his 5th solo album entitled "Stop, Rock & Roll!" with the help of some of his friends. Give it a listen, Bruce plays all the instuments including drums. | Stop,
Rock & Roll! (Bruce Tambs) |
|
This
song is about a young man I worked with for a short time, and became very
close friends with. He was an excellent songwriter and musician and he
was taken from us much too soon. This is my tribute to him. |

Goin'
For the Jugular (Jim Pfeiffer) |
|
| A tale similar to Damien Thorn's, a jackal spawn of the devil rises to political power to do the work of evil. Although, in this case our adversary rides the shirt-tail of a husband to gain one of the most powerful seats in our country, does no work at all, stands on the political fence of indecision, then waits for the latest poll results before forming an opinion. Hillary, like Damien, waits quietly in the shadows for the most opportune time to strike. "...for she knows her time is short." | The
Ballad of Hillary (Falardeau/Tambs) |
|
| Got a new yamaha plug-in card for my sound card, a vocal harmonizer. Was playing around with it and ended up doing a partial version of "Because" by the Beatles. I played harpsichord for background. | Because (Lennon/McCartney) |
| Meet Little Brother is a song about the evils of crime and the inevitability that Big Brother will never catch them all. This is an awesome insight into the talents of Mr. Bruce Tambs on guitar. The song title has since changed to "Face Down" and can be found on the "2 Way TV" album here. | Meet
Little Brother (Guitars Only) (Falardeau/Tambs) |
|
| This
is a parody commercial song I wrote for Raymour
& Flanigan's furniture store. I created it for my brother-in-law
who is an employee there. I would always tease him about them having a
sale every day, always being overstocked, possibly infringing copyright
laws in their commercials, having private sales for preferred customers
(even if you've never purchased from them before), and giving you credit
cards that even they don't accept. |

| In
2001, Bruce and I tried our hand at a cover tune for a Shure
Microphone Musical Roots Contest. We picked The Beatles "Cry
Baby Cry" because it had all the elements we were looking for. This
is the demo I brought over to Bruce's house. I played piano, sequenced
bass and accordian, drum loop and vocals. |
Cry
Baby Cry (Demo) (Lennon/McCartney) |
|
| This
is the version we submitted to Shure.com for the contest. We used the
piano and bass, then Bruce added a real accordian, acoustic and electric
guitar, and vocals. A different loop was added to give it a modern feel.
The final version we were both pleased with is on the "2 Way TV"
album here. |
