Muckafurgason - Tossing A Friend (1998)

An eclectic mix of hip and loser, these three cynical savants called Muckafrgason explore everything from rock to pop to country to hip-hop on their journey through Genreville, leaving no era of the radio untouched. All of them sing - sometimes solo, in harmony, whatever - and they rotate instruments like musical chairs. So are they confused, lacking direction or suffering from multiple personality disorder? None of the above. Fearing no style or instrument, their debut explores more musical territory than most bands do in a lifetime. While they're panning a genre or astutely emulating its style, you'll either be peeing in your pants or simply impressed their uncanny ability to pull it off with flair and finesse. Admission at their live show will undoubtedly reward you with a smile from ear to ear, where the quirky harmonies, irresistible melodies and smart lyrics come together in that "ahhh, I get it" fashion. Tossing A Friend is a tongue-in-cheek tribute to anything and everything. Dubbed "the Benny Hill of Rock" and "the next great American sensation." Produced by John Kimbrough (of Walt Mink) who recently won his second Emmy Award in the category of Outstanding Music and Lyrics for co-writing Hugh Jackman's opening number at the 2009 Oscars.
