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
You need to have the right tools, know some tricks and have all of the latest toys.
Lyrics
I look around at where I am, and the life I have made Working hard, learning to use the tools of my trade As I grow older, a little wiser, I notice some things What can happen, it’s amazing, what the right tool brings Tools, Tricks and Toys Separates men from boys Tools Tricks and Toys Things we can all employ You got to know all the tricks to get by these days Working hard ain’t enough; need some wiley ways Some sleight of hand, did you see, maybe a ruse here and there Don’t let them know who, when or where We ain’t fools, we got some tools We ain’t hicks, we know the tricks We ain’t boys, but baby, we got all the toys! Got some toys under my arm, can you come out and play? Got enough pretty things to last all day It’s amazing how fast, growing up before your eyes The toys just got bigger, to my surprise
