My New band…Sort Of.

I just recorded a song with some friends/co-workers.

But you need the backstory…

We did a promotion with Best Buy (they just opened a music instruments & performance section). Our afternoon DJs Cort & Bobby were offered 6 weeks of lessons on guitar and bass if they made a band and played one set.

They did a contest with our listeners, picked a singer and drummer and played one set of covers at the store under the name “Meh”, because they felt incredibly mediocre.

We had an awesome local band, The Punk Group open for them at the event. Afterwards the Punk Group guys told us that they were soliciting bands to cover their songs for a “Punk Group Covers” album and they wanted “Meh” to do one.

Cort & Bobby enlisted another of our co-workers, Tony for drums and me for vocals. We spent last Saturday in a studio who offered to record it for us (huge thanks to them….Black Diamond Recording Studios) and now have a new song.

Keep in mind, we are COVERING the Punk Group’s song. Their lyrics, based on the MSNBC show “To Catch a Predator.” It’s called “Online Predator” and you can hear the original here.

Our version,  totally re-arranged is here:

That is f*ing awesome! Are they still looking for covers of their stuff? I’m sure “Tight End Wide Receiver” is already taken, but we’d love to cover it!
