about

Here we are again, with the second in our ongoing series of imaginary hit singles. Two brand new Pointed Sticks songs to tittilate your musical taste buds.   Pessimist’s Son might be a protest song, but aren’t all songs protest songs, after a fashion?   Snapshot could be our homage to Nevil Shute, sometimes the beach is a very lonely place to find yourself. Here we enlisted the services of Johnny Ferreira on saxophone, to help blow the clouds away.    So, that’s it for now, but we promise to be back soon. We’re prepared.   If you want to hear more, click the Follow tab on this page, and our promo department will notify you when the next release happens. And if you like us, spread the word. If you have a radio station you listen to, please send the music to them. Play it for your friends. Play it in your car. Play it too loud for your neighbours!
