The new Tangy disc, "Sorta Like Very Ultra," is finally available for sale! Woo Hoo!!
It was three years in the making, it's hard to believe that it is finally really and truly done. But I've got a stack of them right here at my elbow, so it must be true.
We don't have a shopping cart set up on our website yet, but if you want to buy one ($10 + $3 shipping in the US) shoot me a PM or email and I can hook you up.
Here's a few samples...

Believe Me
Sorta Like Very Ultra
Cheers,

Good news for our Canadian friends....
I just discovered that it is not that much more to mail a CD to Canada than it is to the US. So we can sell them to y'all north of the border for the same price as to us in southern North America.

Interesting... the first two sound reminiscent of the Doobie Bros., a la Rockin' Down The Highway and the verse of Sorta Like Very Ultra sounds akin to Sammy Hagar's song, One Way To Rock!
Congratulations on finishing the disc! Now go play some gigs so you can sell 'em and afford to record the next disc.

Congratulations Michael, this is a major achievement!
It makes it even more worthwhile to gig your cool originals now, too. With that new CD and the Pedal Pimp series that is taking off, I hope you make a killing out there!

Thanks. I'd be happy to make back what we spent to make the CD...
I'm actually surprised at how the Pedal Pimp thing is taking off. We've gotten something like 1,275 views in three days on the last episode, which is boggling my mind...

Regarding the Pedal Pimp series, it's only bound to keep snowballing from here on out as you add more episodes. People finding one of your vids while researching one pedal will start looking around what else you have going, and the more you have going, the more your vids will gain visibility, etc.
Great goin'!!! Keep the momentum (that's probably the toughest part after a while so brace for any slump)!

Congrats, dude! That's great! The samples sound great too!
My band has our debut CD in mix right now, so I totally understand all the anxious waiting, hard work, compromises with bandmates on little tiny details of the songs, etc., etc. Soon, we will have the satisfaction and disbelief of having a stack of discs sitting next to us too!
Congrats again, and GREAT WORK from what I have heard so far. (Will be buying a copy soon... just got a new guitar so I'm broke right now, wink, wink.)

Thanks, DracheCool! It was a daunting undertaking, but we survived! That what don't kill you makes you stronger...
Good luck on your disc, too.

You were the first person EVAR to buy our disc, maybe I should have let you cut the umbilical cord?

I've had my copy for a couple of weeks now, and I like it alot! Congrats on having to re-supply on CDBaby. I personally think that you have a winner on your hands.

Thanks, Greg. Glad you dig it. We tried to make the best record we could given our limited budget, and I'm pretty darn proud of how it all came out.
And thank you too, Dr. Ellwood, for the support!!
