6-23-11 - "Don't Get Stuck (Proud Elephants)" ~ Delicate Steve

This guy was on World Cafe the other day, and he's got some pretty sweet and fun tunes.  It's instrumental, it's ethereal, it'll make you smile and probably bob your head or tap your toes or something.


Steve Marion is just a kid from Jersey (the only black mark on him) who wrote some music and recorded it.  But it's a little different than anything I've ever heard before, and he's got a heck of a PR team ~ they wrote an utterly fictitious, but highly entertaining, press release hyping the band, complete with lines such as "...most of these songs are both too musical and too insane for the typically dim-witted American consumer."   It's epic.


Give the song a shot; tell me what you think.  The video has some psychedelic moments and old cartoons to add to the experience if you so desire, or just listen:




PS - you can take a gander at the entire album over on Bandcamp:
