Artist description This GREAT new band is as American as apple pie, performing a broad variety of original music. Look for other musical styles in future releases, though their roots are undoubtedly Rock and Roll!

Similar Artists Described as a cross between Spinal Tap, The Rutles, and a cartoon soundtrack.

Artist History Formed in early 2002 though friends for many years, this band developed as a means of musical expression for the members as well a means of releasing original material by American Artists. Hum-Drum records is a small fledging, fully indepent (ie low budget) label developed as a means of presenting American talent that may otherwise remain unheard. Some of us are new to music, some have played since the 60's. Some have performed under other names (but we can't tell ya who!!!)... It is our intention to feature a variety of artists that all have one thing in common, they are all American Bred!

Group Members See information regarding each release. Core members are Phil O'Ceffe and Blaine Haydn. The concept of American Bred was developed by along with the songwriter/producer/contributor phil maiorano. American Bred! is based in the northeast and the debut album was recorded in New Hampshire, where the state motto is "Live Free or Die"!

Instruments You name 'em, they play 'em - ( some admittedly ' virtual ' ).

Albums Debut album on HumDrum Records - you can always tell a HumDrum artist!

Press Reviews We have pasted the review from the liner notes of our debut release. This was written by Rikki-Tikki Tivan of the New Hampshire Rock Press. This album done secretly and was not heard by anyone prior to release. Recording quality is actually quite good for an amateur effort! We can.tell you that everyone who has heard it so far finds at least one song they really love, and it is unlikely anyone with a focused, specific musical preference will like every song on "... And Music For ALL!", but very likely everyone will find a song that really hits home! Here is Rikki's Review: ''Just as our Country is a 'melting pot' for many diverse cultures, this first Album for America's newest great musical act is a collection of diversified tunes. This ecclectic offering shows influences from musical styles ranging from classic Rock & Roll, like the track that bears the name of the band, to the jazz colored "RainForest", and the swing styled "Miss Ima Krabbe". The strange hard Rocker, "EarthDay" has a cynical tone. Classical influence pervades "I'll Miss You" and the pop oriented derivative of Pachelbel's Canon in D, "Pack A Bell", while the instrumental piece, "Elves withHammers" sounds like music from a children's cartoon! The album's title, "...And Music For All", reflects this broad range of appeal their music has, as well as their belief in the basic premise of America, that all of us are created equally! Granted, not all musical styles are represented here but this is just their first album! The recording quality is excellent for a first effort, and more vocal pieces would be welcomed in the future. This is a Band who's Time Has Come! Who are these mystery boys really? It doesn't matter, just listen to these songs - you're bound to like at least one regardless of your musical tastes. Independently produced and recorded,this first effort deserves high commendation and your support!'' -Rikki Tikki Tivan, New Hampshire Rock Press.
