Tally Hall

I think it's about time that I mention these guys in my blog. For too long now, this quintet of greatness still stands unnoticed by the public. Based out of Ann Arbor, Michigan, Tally Hall is one of the more eclectic genre jumping bands out there right now with a sound that they can only describe as "wonk rock". In each of their songs, your bound to finds sounds from Brian Wilson to Sublime, The Beatles to Willie Nelson, and everything else in between. With unpredictable sounds, chord progressions and lyrics, Tally Hall will keep you on the edge of your seat trying to guess what your ears are going to hear next, but you'll be glad with everything you've heard. As well as their originals, they're know for their interesting takes on covers such as "Praise You" by Fatboy Slim, "Just A Friend" by Biz Markie, "Smile Like You Mean It" by the Killers and many other obscure tunes from all channels on the radio. They're definitely a band to catch live, due to their ability to reproduce everything from their albums into a live atmosphere. I highly suggest that if you can see them live to see them quickly. Considering they're still playing smaller venues, they can still be more intimate with the crowd, whether they sit in the middle of the audience in a little pow-wow doing ballads, asking the audience to come up with an imaginary ice cream flavor or walking through the crowd crashing on tambourines. Alongside their music, they have a brand of humor in the same vein of their music whether it be in the form of skits or music videos. In due time, it is said that their skits will be put between commercials on either MTV or Fuse. If word continues to spread about Tally Hall, it's very likely they could be the next big thing. Check out their myspace, watch their mini-series on their site, tell your friends and support their music!
