While this song bounced around in my head for years before this recording, we actually laid down the track in less than 24 hours after a friend in "the biz" called us asking if we had a good song for the victorious conclusion of a TV show about battling zombies. "Heck yeah," I said. And then we made this, and making it made us really friggin' happy.

They ended up going "in another direction" for the closing soundtrack, so we decided that this would be the perfect song to share with our friends, fans, and family for the Thanksgiving season. 

We're grateful for so dang much, and really, truly, it IS all good in Evangenitals-land. Hope you enjoy the song.

The Lyrics: 
I fell down and broke my arm...
but it's all good
I started a fire and set off an alarm...
but it's all good
My momma just told me that somebody died...
but it's all good
My poor little brother can’t sleep through the night...
and it’s all good

It’s all good....

My dog got hit by a car today...
but it's all good
Cause Einstein told me nothing really goes away...
so it’s all good 
My old man just walked out on me...
but it's all good
Cause there’s just someplace that he’s gotta be, and it’s not with me, 
and that’s all good

It’s all good...

Cause I feel just like a doggy riding in a car
With my head out the window and we’re going real far
And I trust in the driver and I’m letting him drive
With my eyes wide open watch the world fly by 
And all I feel is the wind in my face
Sun shining down and the universe embrace 
And the sun goes up and the sun comes down 
And we’re driving all over this great big town called good

It’s all good...

It's All Good

The Evangenitals performing "Bury Me Under the Weeping Willow" live on KPIG's "Please Stand By" with Sleepy John. 

Bury Me Under the Weeping Willow - Live on KPIG

This basically tells the whole story of Rocket Raccoon leading up to when he joins The Guardians of the Galaxy. 
Being unfamiliar with the character and comics, this might not make a whole lot of sense, but it's totally accurate in every way. It's pretty NerdTastic.

Bass & Effects: Joey Maramba
Vocals: Danny Graziani & Juli Crockett

Lyrics by Patrick Ian Moore. 

"Rocket Raccoon" (to the tune of The Beatles' Rocky Raccoon)

Now somewhere on Halfworld in The Keystone Quadrant
There lived a Ranger named Rocket Raccoon
And one day The Hulk came in through The Galacian Wall
Rocket’s furry and he’s small, The Hulk really liked that
He said I’m gonna help that boy
They stopped the Robo Mower and
Joined a young raccoon onboard the Rakk N Ruin
 
Rocket Raccoon flew The Rakk N Ruin
Judson Jakes wants Gideon’s Bible
Jakes was a mole, And he would have stole
The Key that was Halfworld’s Bible
Then Uncle Pyko, creates Circus Psycho
Dyvyne steals Rocket’s girl Lylla Otter
He wanted to marry, But He was too scary
He still killed her parents and got her
She was heiress for, Toys that start the war
Her company Dyvyne wants control of
That was no fun, Rocket brought a gun
He said Dyvyne I’m not here to show love
Dyvyne worked with Jakes, The mole and the snake
So Rocket teamed up with some robots, ah

D'da d'da d'da da da da 
D'da d'da d'da da da da  
D'da d'da d'da da d'da d'da d'da d'da 
Do do do do do do 

D'do d'do d'do do do do 
D'do d'do d'do do do do 
D'do d'do d'do do do d'do d'do d'do d'do 
Do do do do do do
 
They want Rocket to stay, But he flew away
Looking for more adventures and good times
He said the Universe is big too
And I’ve got a real big job to do
I’m going out to fight against injustice and more space crimes
 
And now Rocket Raccoon, He flew the Rakk N Ruin
Then was imprisoned by The Kree
Met some new friends, Their imprisonment ends
He joined the Guardians of the Galaxy
 
Oh yeah, yeah 
D'do d'do d'do do do do 
D'do d'do d'do do do do 
D'do d'do d'do do do d'do d'do d'do d'do 
Do do do do do do....

Rocket Raccoon/Guardians of the Galaxy (Parody Geek Love)

Inspired by the phenomenon of turbulence.

lyrics:
You can’t contain this! 
That ain’t the way that it works 
A freak eruption of convulsions and a series of jerks 

You can’t explain this! 
It’s just a matter of fact 
No mathematic-apparatus can predict my attack 

Can’t nobody stop this flow 
Where it’s going no one knows 

You think you know me 
But all you know is my name 
And my momentum has system that nobody can tame 

A situation that one can never rehearse 
The metamorphosis transforms us till the black bubble bursts 

Can't stand the flux 
Well, that's the crux 
This ain't no static this is Turbulent Flow 
Go 

Can’t nobody stop this flow 
Where it’s going no one knows 

A generation 
of vortex stretching and whirls, 
its my spazmodic diatonic that will get you the girls 

It's a gyration, 
chaotic eddies and flows, 
who's complicated variation patterns god only knows 

Feel the vibration of the hammer that hit 
When Tashtego took the sea-hawk to the bottomless pit 

Can’t nobody stop this flow 
Where I’m going no one knows (x2) 

Can't stand the flux 
Well, that's the crux 
Come try your lucks 
Cuz static sucks 
Don’t like the flux 
Well that’s the crux 
Cuz static sux 

This ain’t no static this is Turbulent Flow 
Can’t nobody stop this flow

Turbulent Flow (Acoustic)

Inspired by my office job.
lyrics
The other day, when I awoke, I went to work, I did my job then I went home 
I fed the dog, I watched TV, I fell asleep 
Ain't life sweet? 

When I awoke, I went to work, I did my job then I went home 
I fed the dog, I watched TV, I fell asleep 
Then repeat... 

When I awoke, I went to work, I did my job then I went home 
I fed the dog, I watched TV, I fell asleep 
Ain't life sweet? 

When I awoke, I went to work, I did my job then I went home 
I fed the dog, I watched TV, I fell asleep 
Then repeat... 

When I awoke, I went to work, I did my job then I went home 
I fed the dog, I watched TV, I fell asleep 
This is me... 

When I awake, I go to work, I do my job then I go home 
I feed the dog, I watch TV, I fall asleep 
But then I dreamed... 

That I awoke, I went to work, I quit my job then I went home 
I fed the dog, I set him free, and then I flew across the sea... 

I went to Rome, 
I took a walk, 
I met a man he looked like me 
But couldn't talk, 
He had no tongue, 
Je wore a sign, 
Said "Stop And Think" 
Looked in his eyes, 
He looked in mine, 
He started crying and began to scream 
And in his throat, 
There was a note..... 
It said, "Ain't Life Sweet?" 

La la la, la la la la la la la, la la la.... 

The other day, when I awoke, I went to work, I did my job then I went home 
I fed the dog, I watched TV... 

Ain't life sweet?

Never Too Late

100 Song Demo Podcast - Episode 2 "Never Too Late"

What the hell kind of church service is this?” the LA Weekly once asked of an Evangenitals live performance. 

The Avant-Americana 9 piece sound more like they hail from a rural Appalachian psychedelic dream than Los Angeles, which can be credited to in part to Juli Crockett’s vocals and Zappa-esque sensibility. Unburdened by genres, the band was founded in 2003 by playwright/director Crockett and opera, jazz and gospel singer Lisa Dee, originally as a joke, but they were too damn good to not take seriously.

“The harmonies between Juli Crockett and Lisa Dee are like the Andrews Sisters re-imagined as tragic mermaids,” said LA Record. 

The Alt-Country band have recorded 4 albums, including Moby Dick: or, The Album (Fluff and Gravy 2014), which No Depression described as “manic, diverse, unusual and creative songwriting and delivery at its best.”

They’ve played all over the world, including the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Lightning In A Bottle and The Melissa Etheridge Cruise. 

Joining Crockett on guitar is her husband, Michael Feldman (Cousin Junebug), on keys, Joey Maramba (John Cale) on bass, Andrea Baker (The Moth Mainstage) on fiddle, Cody Farwell (Goodnight Cody) on guitar/lap steel, Danny Graziani (DoSomething) on viola, electric mandolin and harmonica, and Rob Shaffer (Ninja Academy) and Nick Stone (Pixarmonic Orchestra) on drums and percussion.
