Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann;

 Doug Buchanan; Lee Sullivan;

 Jake Knight; Reiley Cowart; Kyle Hodgkin

ASHATAWAH

pop rock. I can’t hardly breathe…because you take my breath away. I gotta shout out loud. Not only did I shout, but also…ashatawah!

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P. Demmel;

 DIAMOND EYES

reggae. The mystery of the Caribbean  sea at sunrise idealized in an island girlfriend. Her legs wave the ocean. She touch me.

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P. Demmel; Kyle Ferguson;

Kevin Patrick; Lee Sullivan;

FIREBALL!

pop rock. A quick trip to the circus life with a shot. Party with TPB. OMG, my tongue’s on fire. Pow!

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; Doug Buchanan; Zandra Lipinski;

Dan Nicora; Jake Knight.

MONSTER

pop rock. Break free from the chains of a suffocating romance and a  leash around my neck. What am I ‘supposta do? 

There’s a monster under my bed!

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P. Demmel;

GAME NIGHT

rock/blues. Beware…she’s a drama queen. All icing--no cake from a word-game/board-game tragedienne. I see your eyes turn candy-apple red. We play apples-to-apples…then I go to bed.

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P. Demmel; Beth Schulz.

LIVING

60’s style rock. Even though shattered into pieces, I tell my broken heart to get back to the world of the living. Shock my heart. Heaven is cracked; the rain falls in; Living just won’t stop.

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; Doug Buchanan; Zandra Lipinski

HOLIDAY

reggae.  Get some sand in your shoes.  Let me inject you with a vision of hope. Time to make a getaway and declare

today a holiday.

Kyle Ferguson; Kevin Patrick;

ALIEN ELVIS

rock/blues/country. Nobody can fill his shoes. If we can’t find him living in Minnesota, I guess we just have to find a new king. Hound dog in tow and sporting blue suede shoes—he has left the building.

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P. Demmel;

WHOLE

folk/Int’l. There’s a hole in my heart. A boy-to-man tells a haunting tale of sin, then despair, then hope…and finally--redemption! Salvation has made us whole.

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P. Demmel;

SUGAR

rock/RB/country cross-over. Sugar in my coffee and in my love life. A pure sugar high with a backbeat.

‘Gimmie sugar! Be my sugar baby.

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; Doug Buchanan; Zandra Lipinski;

SWEET NEW ORLEANS

Dixie jazz. I hear preserved Bourbon Street horns while hiding behind my feather mask. Ah! Sweet New Orleans, I hear you calling.

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P.Demmel; Kevin Patrick; 

Dan Nicora; Bill Dixon; Zandra Lipinski;

 FIREBALL!

pop rock. A quick trip to the circus life with a shot. Party with TPB. OMG, my tongue’s on fire. Pow!

TWO STEP [duet]

country. Two potential lovers meet on the rebound. There’s no better way to heal and move on than to two-step away from the heartache.

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P .Demmel; Beth Schulz;

DIVINO

folk/Int’l. The Portuguese diva sings divinely of love of family. As her enchanted voice resounds, the homestead echoes. Sing out. I’m loving it. O! Divino!

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P.Demmel;

Peter Crescimanno;

LONG TIME COMING

easy pop rock. Sorry you had to wait so long though my love was always with you. Time keeps flying by. Soon I’ll be there at your side.

Joe Lipinski; Joe Tellmann; J.P.Demmel;

TwoFer (TWO FOR A DOLLAR)

country/folk. A self-reflective ditty on the confluence of life, creativity, money, and passion. 

Since I’ve got breath, I will keep singing.

 Be my guest. This one’s on me.
