New TMBG Video: Meet the Elements

How can you not love Boing Boing Video for premiering this? They have a much larger version of it there, if you prefer a husky video. TMBG never fails to deliver the goods and is MOST CERTAINLY one of the strongest influences on my nerdy-musical-comedy-duo Hard ‘n Phirm (Tom Lehrer being the other). As proof, [...]

Hard ‘n Phirm: Moose Lodge

This song is what you would call a “deep cut.” It’s on our non-vinyl album “Horses and Grasses” but never gets any attention because we didn’t make a video for it, nor do we ever play it live because we don’t have the dough to lug a Baritone around the country. Unfortunate, really, because it [...]

Hard 'n Phirm – Death of the King

Here’s a silly video we made last year for our “Country PBS” series. It examines the death of Elvis Presley from a slightly more medical perspective. Let it be noted that we were only allowed to tackle the religious topic of Elvis because I am from Memphis. The art & animation for the vid were [...]

Hard 'n Phirm – "Trace Elements" Video

Phirm and I made this last year as part of a series called CPBS, which stands for “Country Public Broadcasting System.” The concept is that Country Music Television launched a Public Broadcasting wing. The videos have popped on and off the Web but this one’s back up again so I’m posting it here. The first [...]

New Hard 'n Phirm Video: CES!

Phirm and I wrote a Hank-Williams, Jr.-Monday-Night-Football-F-16s-Shooting-Lasers-in-the-shape-of-the-Flag-type song to celebrate the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show for G4. It’s pretty nerdy and inside so if you don’t like/get it, no worries a’tall. For the complete line-up of videos from CES coverage goto G4Tv.com. Thanks to everyone who made CES a blast! *If you like the song [...]

New Hard 'n Phirm Video

We made this video for Super Deluxe before it decided to not continue being funded by Turner. Through the magic of the Internet, someone has posted it on the YouTubes. It’s the fourth in our Country PBS series and is a vintage look at the body’s many openings. Here is "Holes." (and thanks anonymous poster!)

Rodeohead

This is old, but I don’t have it on this site so here it is—the bluegrass medley of 18 Radiohead songs that Mike Phirman (as Hard ‘n Phirm) and I made four years ago. It’s not on iTunes for licensing reasons so please take it for free if you don’t already have it. Or you [...]
