Here are some samples of our original tunes:

 
 

 

By the Rio Puerco

Jon wrote the tune, and Tony wrote the lyrics for this song about a dry river bed that "surrounds" Albuquerque.

Growin' Old In New Mexico

Tony wrote this one (great lyrics!), but he graciously gives Jon some of the credit for the tune.

Chama to Antonito

Bill's ode to the northern New Mexico steam train, the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad.  If you ever come to New Mexico, it's well worth a visit.  Chama is beautiful, and you're only about an hour from Pagosa Springs and skiing at Wolf Creek pass up in Colorado.

Two Cat Woman

One of Tony's residents gave him an ear-full at a time when he (the resident) was having some "relationship" difficulty.  So Tony made a song out of it, of course.  Be careful what you talk to Tony about.  At least he didn't use the poor guy's name. 

It Ain't the Years

We think that Tony wrote this sentimental ballad to mollify his lovely wife Sheila, who must be a cat lover.

If you like what you hear, please visit CD Baby and pick up our studio effort, titled after the previous tune:
