   About 420TUNES TALLBROTHERS

Tallbrothers are the global award-winning reeferjazz band based in Vancouver. They are Bill and Tom Small, actual brothers who grew up in a musically-gifted farm family in southwest Ontario. Their father was 5 when he began performing out of town one-nighters in a child prodigy duo with his sister and their mother was a young Debussy fan who learned Clair de la Lune by ear off of a 78 record. Five of six siblings are music professionals and the other one sings in the church choir.
Bill led 70’s rock bands in his early teens and jazz bands with horn sections soon after. He married young, had kids, and very quickly sold a hundred-million-dollars in real estate until work related stress and life-threatening ulcers forced him to re-evaluate the meaning of life.
He divested all of his real estate holdings and became a Red Cross director then formed a bluegrass band with brother Tommy and started gigging solo in Montreal clubs honing formidable jazz vocal and guitar chops. Upon discovering that marijuana had cured his ulcers he moved to Vancouver and launched the British Columbia Compassion Club Society with Hillary Black initially operating out of his apartment. This organization provides low-cost, high quality organic medicinal marijuana to anyone with a doctor’s prescription. Still strong after over 10 years, the club now services more than 4000 members and has assisted another 2500 sadly departed.
Tommy began playing different instruments at age 5 and writing music at 8. At 14 he was the main featured soloist in his high school jazz orchestra that took 1st place in the Canadian Stage Band Festival competition.
He studied Music Industry Arts at Fanshawe College under the tutelage of producer Jack Richardson (Alice Cooper,Stephen Stills, all Guess Who records, many others, the Coca-Cola "I'd Like To Teach the World to Sing" commercial and mentor to protégé Bob Ezrin (Pink Floyd,Peter Gabriel etc.))
After college there were formative years: pursuing private music studies/audio engineering and busking/travelling/playing many genres of music in many bands. He found fledgling Django tribute Swing Dynamique in Montreal in 1992 and played bass with them for the next 6 years until they were a Montreal jazz/bop/lounge institution. This group featured two but as many as five Duke Ellington alumni at once and boasts 60 former alumni including the legendary Guy Nadon on drums. They played for crowds of up to 250 000 people at the Montreal Jazz Fest and their self-titled CD still receives regular airplay "judging by the royalty checks" quips Tom in a recent interview.
Tommy moved to BC’s Sunshine Coast in 2002 to join Bill and Tallbrothers were deployed to satisfy a growing niche market spinning off of BC’s famous seven billion dollar pot industry. He wasted no time writing up charts for three sets of 30’s and 40’s reefertunes gleaned from the archives of Cab Calloway, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole and many others. The band moniker derives from one of these entitled “Man With the Jive” (“Light up baby and get real tall!”). Their own songs soon eclipsed these classics in quantity and perhaps in accesibility too, updating the genre to address today’s heroes and issues for a younger generation while maintaining the sonorous bounce that turns grandma into a teenager again.
Their fame spread internationally when they headlined the 2004 Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam and last September 2008 swept the Global Marijuana Music Awards in Texas. They continue to enjoy success with song licensing deals in TV, film, web-casting and their overnight internet sensation hit CD “Simply Business.”

ESCAPED part 1

They are the people of Babel.  They are possessed by the serpent of Eden.  The experience they are spreading- Cognitive Dissonance, Attitude Change, Occult Rebirth, The Born Again Experience, Zen, The Third Eye of Imagination, The Seen and The Unseen World-- is the source of all evil and misfortune.  The Serpent of Eden, "the most subtle of all beasts", is a master of philosophy, psychology, theology, logic, and deception.  Puzzling you is the nature of his game.  He will pose moral and ethical dilemmas and contrive absurd situations.  He always has an excuse, "did the experience help you or hurt you?" He will make use of demonic sophistry expecting you to confuse the disease with the cure.  No one needs it or him.

Well thank you for asking. A world where I (as well as the world) are to be able to grow marijuana freely, medicare is free, government jobs should not be a financial concern, they should be compensated for such great work. Of course people have to work, I dont like the next freeloader and people that don't just care like the rest of us average people, but it shouldnt be so hard to survive in this world. So far we havent found out what life is lived for and we bring people into this world to just kinda use up the resources of our planet and die and repeat, so why is it so hard to relax at the end of the day smoking a bowl and unwinding from the day? Its hard enough knowing we have no true purpose but can't help the need to experience family, and marriage. Which is all a beautiful thing, I hope to achieve my own one day. But a world where we can just kinda do our thing and have fun. This world is almost there but we do have people that all they care about is making our lives hard. Which I dont know how that happened along building our world today, but it sure does suck. A world where people are just happy with the way they live their lives, a world where people can actually achieve something great in this life. and a world that thinks bigger than ours...


thanks again for asking.
