We are the trans-Atlantic alliance of Bob Kingdon, from England and Eric Daum from New England. We are a virtual band inspired by the music of Bill Nelson, Power Pop and girls in short skirts and tight shirts. Bob handles the guitars, Eric, the keyboards, loops and programming as well as dabbling with his ancient Rickenbacker on a few songs. Both Bob and Eric sing and share songwriting. In addition, we sometimes set the poems of Carole Young, a Scottish poet to music.Band/artist history

Vocals are brilliant, song powers along with great lyrics. Love it!
Nice guitar!
& another fine piece.
Keep em coming!
Good one Eric & Bob 4 chords or not a nice little mover!
One more for the good guys!
at times i loved the vocal passionately (when it was bryan ferry-ish)and at others not so much (when it was more lounge singer-ish) but the song is brilliant and the lyric wonderfully warm and tender...top chops and all round great!!
Overall I love this but reckon you could have gone a little bit madder with vox....for instance gradually added layers of harmonies until you have a full blown rock band sound like you have with the instruments. But it's certainly solid as a rock in the songwriting area and although a live drummer would improve it dramatically, I realize you have to use the tools at your disposal.
Lyrically (which is my area as you know) it's spot on!!!!
