frontman friday: paul meany

friday is upon us...beautiful, isn't it?
before we start oogling one of my favorite frontmen, a quick happy father's day to all the dads out there! hope you enjoy grilling out and receiving a tie/socks/can of mixed nuts from children who love you but have no idea what to buy for you.

my frontman for today is a dad so it's totally applicable.

meet frontman dad: paul meany
i LOVE it when singers smile while singing and playing.

the first time i ever saw MUTEMATH play was on a tiny stage, in the middle of the day at a festival right after they released the Reset EP. there were maybe 20 of us crowded around the trailer-turned-stage. however, the first time i saw paul play was years earlier when he was in a band called earthsuit. 
paul is second from left. i'm sure this look was really in in 2000.

MUTEMATH caught the ears of movie execs and landed on two different soundtracks. 
 i never saw transformers.
i also never saw twilight. 
but clearly they have killer soundtracks.

they used to sell buttons in sets of two because one button said mute and the other button said math. i had a set and my mom thought they were the dumbest thing but i thought they were the greatest...and then i lost the mute button. tragedy. so now, somewhere in one of my boxes of random nostalgic crap that i tote around whenever i move, i have a sad little math button that misses it's counterpart.
