TRG Records
The Tropicals
The Tropicals' debut release, "Live at the Jungle", is finally here! With sweet harmonies the likes of which haven't been heard since S&G laid down "My Little Town", and lyrics that thread a romantic needle between the best of Jonathan Richman and his evil twin Robyn Hitchcock, these guys deliver a sound that's sure to charm the leather pants off even the most cynical of Alternabutts. Tackling subjects like butterflies, bicycles, and love in all its complex incarnations, The Tropicals provide a much needed aural vacation from Life's Bitch Pagent. Jim Walsh, music editor of the St Paul Pioneer Press, calls the album "suberb ... simply gorgeous songs ... an unexpected source of inspiration".
