Couch Session: ARMS

Couch Session #2 — ARMS.

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,
This is how the story goes.
We met Todd back when he was a Shake,
One of the Harlem types, before they did break.
ARMS emerged, and with clown doodling skills undebatable,
their solemnly sweet tunes have left us insatiable.
Much like the cookies they're eating above,
both munchies and these melodies we wholeheartedly love.
They brought to our couch two new songs and one not,
Music we wanted to download to our gadgets on the spot.
So enjoy, Big Ugly reader, these tunes they have made,
And we hope you adore what these three boys played:

Couch Session Preview.

Here's a sneak peek of our next session...Make sure to stop by Monday to see the entire thing!

Bonus Footage: HYMNS

Donald unearthed some extra footage from HYMNS' couch session last week. Judging from their chalky skills, I have a feeling that these boys were always the first ones in school to jump up and answer math problems on the board.

Couch Session: HYMNS

Couch Session #1 - HYMNS.

A tiny amp, a boy attached,
a maraca inside a winter hat.
Munching on elementary snacks and home-brought beer,
carrot sticks and pretzels nullified any fear.
Guinea pigs were HYMNS, you see,
the first to bring tunes to you and me.
So we hope you enjoy this duo's sweet songs,
and keep them playing all night long.

 

 

(I somehow ended up in this video, despite not being able to stay on the beat. Apologies, friends.)
