Two Songs (and a Catchy Jingle) from Brady Rymer
This has been available for awhile, but I wanted to point out that Brady Rymer has three new songs available for download as part of his Children's Dimetapp Breathe & Boogie Tour. Go here to download "Healthy Livin'" and "Even the Animals Sneeze," a couple mid-tempo folk-rockers that would've sounded fine on his recent Every Day is a Birthday CD.
Also available for download is "We are the Sniffles," which also has a video on the site. I'm sorta bummed because it's the best of the three tracks -- propulsive, great harmonies -- but it's got a couple shout-outs to Dimetapp (both in the song and on the video). It's worth a spin, though, because aside from the commercial reference (which kinda kills any repeat-listening value for me), it shows Rymer and his band at their best.
Rymer, incidentally, will be releasing his latest album, Brady Rymer and the Little Band That Could, on March 4. You can hear one of the songs from the upcoming CD, "Road Trip" by attending one of his final shows on this tour in Rochester (NY), Houston, Dallas, and Madison, New Jersey (details here) and picking up the free six-song Rymer CD they're distributing.
So, yeah, I'm just waiting for the edited version...

Doesn't it creep you out that Brady Rymer is promoting Dimetapp?

Clint, it's a bummer in a way...but then, how does a gifted musician like Brady Rymer get his gift out to the public--espeially a gifted kid's musician (remember Ralph Covert doing that Rice Krispies jingle last year?). The relationship between artists and their patrons has always had an element of squickiness about it. I just hope Rymer gets the bigger fan base he deserves.
