The short version is we’re a music/comedy duo, and have been writing and performing music together for two decades, starting in the professional a cappella band Da Vinci’s Notebook. A lot of our music is kinda nerdy, much like we are kinda nerdy, which led us to found a variety show called w00tstock along with Wil Wheaton and Adam Savage. We’ve also toured extensively with geek favorite Jonathan Coulton, co-produce an annual fan cruise with him called JoCo Cruise Crazy, and are frequent guests on podcasts such as The Thrilling Adventure Hour.

Did we mention that we write music? Indeed we do! We’ve recorded five full albums, as well as a number of smaller projects and individual songs. 2013 saw a song of ours featured in DESPICABLE ME 2, and our song “Write Like the Wind” led to George R. R. Martin smashing our guitar, ending with a scolding by Neil Gaiman.

All of our songs can be found here (as well iTunes, Amazon, and wherever quality MP3s are sold), but we’ve collected up a few fan favorites for you to listen to in one place to get you started:

Write Like the Wind – our ode/plea to George R. R. Martin
Opening Band – the pain of life on the road; it’s our “Turn the Page”, but happier
Nun Fight  – inspired by the true story of a convent in Italy that had to close after a fist-fight broke out between its two remaining nuns
Frogger! The Frogger Musical – Frogger. In musical form. There you have it!
Thanksgiving – our ode/plea to George Lucas
Nugget Man – a touching tribute to Dr. Robert C. Baker, inventor of the chicken nugget
Mother’s Day Song – Mom will love it!
I Will Sing a Lullabye – that special lady in your life will love it!
A Better Version of You – if you’re a second child, you’ll love it!
The Captain’s Wife’s Lament (Live) – a glimpse of a live Paul and Storm show; you’ll love it!

We’re changing things up this year by giving away Lame Monster Party for COMPLETELY FREE! (click to download, right-click then “Save As…” or however you do it on your particular machine; you should know how to do this by now!) But if you’re the kind of person who loves a bargain (and who perhaps also loves to support independent creators), you can pick up the Halloween Super-Fun Pack for the stupid-low price of $2.

YOU HEARD US RIGHT: six (6!) spooky songs—Live; Cruel, Cruel Moon; Jim Darkmagic; Lame Monster Party; Here Come the Dinosaurs; and The Way-Too-Early Christmas Song—for the MANIACALLY low price of $2. (NOTE: Yes, The Way-Too-Early Christmas Song isn’t really “spooky,” per se; but it’s Halloween-themed, so shut up.)

FUN FACT: people who don’t pick up the Halloween Super-Fun Pack may be swept away by a zombie apocalypse. Why take that chance?
