We are a group of people who enjoy songwriting and then recording the songs. We do it for fun.
The Overtone Gang is a group of people who enjoy songwriting and then recording the songs. The structure of the gang is flexible and people may participate on one CD and not on another. It's their choice. Each person is allowed to pursue their own projects and come back to join the gang. Egos get in the way of music so we try hard to eliminate the reasons for it. 7 different people have been involved in the first three CDs. The Cycle of Life CD included a lot more people (16 in total). Our CD "Relations" had only four people. On our latest CD, Earth, there were three of us, Melanie Broussard, Buddy Trotter and Danny Liggett. The gang has written and recorded songs for 8 CDs. These were recorded by ourselves (no record deal). We duplicate our own CDs, design and print out the booklet and put the jewel case together. We do it for fun.

Story behind the song
A friend of mine and I were talking about messed up things are. He turned to me and said "You know, everything is just broken"
Lyrics
Everything’s broken There once was a time in this great land When a deal was done with a shake of a hand A man just had to speak ‘cause his word was his bond I guess those days are dead and gone When.. Everything’s broken and everything’s wrong We’re in a place we don’t belong Where everything’s broken and everything’s wrong Our politicians cutting deals with the boys Big business turns the wheels And we fall for their ploys Different rules for the rich Same old rules for the poor Justice is for sale who can afford it anymore Where.. Everything’s broken and everything’s wrong We’re in a place we don’t belong Where everything’s broken and everything’s wrong Computers rule the world Can’t talk to people anymore Push one for English, go to hell push four The rich get richer, the poor just stay poor The middle ain’t the middle, not anymore When.. Everything’s broken and everything’s wrong We’re in a place we don’t belong Where everything’s broken and everything’s wrong We have been lost for way too long Can we find our way back To where we belong Too late Because.. Everything’s broken and everything’s wrong We’re in a place we don’t belong Where everything’s broken and everything’s wrong
