Dropped Aug.25,2023–Soap Creek Saloon –Time Travel & Twang back to iconic Austin venue and Animé Americana video - https://found.ee/ftteSCS “Jenny saw plenty of action / A mutual attraction with most of the men she knew.”
Spring 2023 hit - Chinese Underground: Marching Chinese marimba, pining erhu, & guzheng, orchestral flairs Thom Kurtz mixed w/witty lyrics. Upbeat/playful ballad stabs sarcastically at authoritarian attitudes, with killer lines like: “I thought MZ was dead & buried / The kind of man who never married. / Now that he’s back up on his throne / You better watch out or he’ll break your bones.”
ROBOT ODDiTY - summer 2022 hit - A blue android spins regretful song on keyboard odyssey from the factory to beach town finale, surfing sonic waves of piano, synth & percussion. Youtube (where Friends To The End charts > 1 Million views) follow-up to hit “Where'd You Put The Baby?” Modern soft rock new wave satire of romantic couple questioning priorities, frantically searching the home. The guitar-heavy music & accusatory vocals were inspired by David Byrnes’ subversive lyrics & Talking Heads' early days.
Kurtz’s trademark creative artistry, propelled by an arsenal of experimental theatre pop songwriting, is flavored by wide ranging influences like Bowie to Steely Dan, Keith Jarrett to Duke Ellington. What Thom Kurtz calls Modern soft rock — always including top notch instrumentation & custom-built vocals – is a kind of singer-songwriter, storyteller fusion rock.
