unfortunately today's frontman didn't make the lyrics list because he's just a bit too obscure for the general public to know. it's okay, i'm sure i've still scribbled his lyrics on the edges of my work meeting notes or thought about whether or not they'd make a good tattoo. not that that helps pay the bills or anything but musicians don't get into music to make money, right?
his name is: aaron morgan
yes. just yes.

aaron plays the keys and sings lead in seabird
he's on the far right.
his brother is also in the band. gosh i love brother bands.

their very first single was the theme song for the short lived show 'pushing daisies.' it's probably the only song people have even maybe heard from a band that deserves way more air-play.
i never watched the show. it any good? worth a netflix view?
recently there was a short documentary made about the band. the boys' parents are in it and they are hilarious. i don't know that they were trying to be but i thought they were so funny. it's also a great look into the struggles of a band and band life. it also asks (and somewhat answers) "what is success as a musician?" it's good stuff.
it's only a half hour...watch it on your lunch break!
as a side note: alan powell (who sings in anthem lights) acted in a movie inspired by the life of king solomon. it's called 'the song' and comes out in select theaters today. i got to see a preview of it this summer and was so impressed! if you're looking for a good flick this weekend, i'd recommend it. though probably not if you have little ones, it's PG-13 and there are some scenes that are definitely only appropriate for older eyes.
okay, now that you've finished your required reading for friday, happy weekend!
