Influences
a common love for Elliott Smith between members sprouted the band and it took off from there.
Sounds Like
sad people on their happy days, a helium balloon floating towards the clouds, a boy releasing a mended hawk into a forest, a rainy day at the fair, a windy day by the giant inflatable dancing men outside of car dealerships, a wintry walk through a human-sized labyrinth, that feeling of curling up with a good book under the college dorm's stairwell, the sound of thunder rumbling through the walls at night purring you asleep, the first time you made a mix cd for that certain someone, the first time you felt homesick and gave your folks a call, the films of Hayao Miyazaki, the crackling sounds of frozen trees thawing after an ice storm, the future as seen in elementary school educational videos, a game of cards at a local diner, the sense of familiarity you have when meeting a new outstanding person, some words, a guitar, rhythm, a few higher numbered chords, and a hummable melody.
Hey Hey Melodica began as an effort to bring Anthoney Scroggins' acoustic songs to a full band sound. He recruited a series of friends and musicians to flesh out his music, including David Petrison on guitar and Nathaniel Sparks on bass. The current line-up includes Jeffrey Geesa on drums and is currently working on new music and a new EP.

About this page: I have been very active in Domestic Violence causes all of my adult life. I noticed a need in the world pertaining to Same Sex Domestic Violence. It happens more than people know. Unfortunately there are a number of gay people who barely consider themselves worthy or valued as a gay person much less a Domestic Violence Victim. There are also very limited resources, statistics, or information, for Same Sex Domestic Violence. Hopefully through empowerment and education we can change some of this. :D
