Michael J and Abbe Kanter met in a Hollywood improv class. They began in punk dives like Madame Wong's and Al's Bar with songs like Dick Lane and In the Shadow of Hitler. In 1986 their Too Tuff To Cry, a Hi-NRG dance track on JDC Records became a club smash, and TIT put out a stream of 12” singles on L.A. dance labels. Playing both discos and rock clubs, they got national radio airplay with Big Pink House and Boy. As their material morphed and grew beyond dance music, Emotional Coathanger Records was born. Since 2000, TIT has released 3 full-length cds: Meet The Tyrants In Therapy, High Class Trash, and Spoken Weird, blending rock, EDM, punk, and hip-hop with themes like suicide, love, war, and cake. They also produced a popular 26-episode sketch comedy TV series now airing in NYC on the Manhattan Neighborhood Network. Via social media, dance music fans around the world have rediscovered TIT’s disco catalogue. In 2012 they released the maxi single Perfect Love, starting a run of 16 more digital singles and compilations, plus Dance The Night Away, a 12” vinyl EP with Too Tuff, Sweet Magic, Perfect Love, and Crazy Dreams.
TIT is a kaleidoscope of popular music in all its glory. They’ve added a dash of humor, and created their own genre called Punk Cabaret. The listening experience is so mind-bending you might forget how to get home, even if you’re sitting in your own living room.
But what else would you expect from the Tyrants in Therapy?
