Sodafrog is Tom Janovitz. Sodafrog is a larger sound on recording and a smaller sound at live shows. For now the live show is Tom on a flattop acoustic and a resonator guitar. Sodafrog has an EP out titled "Two Days From The Woods". The copies of the EP are limited, but you may purchase them at shows or through this myspace site. The full length album still needs some lovin' before its release due sometime in 2009.
Debut album coming soon.
"SODAFROG, “Headed for Phase”
Tom Janovitz (also of the Shout Abouts) has a brand new bag called Sodafrog. To judge from his freshly released EP, Two Days from the Woods, it’s a little, lonely-sounding bag. This track gives a good idea of Janovitz’s modest, country-tinged approach, and the lo-fi hiss and elegant Americana at work in his other posted tracks help to triangulate his deal."
- MICHAEL BRODEUR (Boston Phoenix)
"Janovitz's main forte seems to be songwriting and vocal performance. His voice is warm, woodsy and at times, woeful. Janovitz has the sort of voice to which you immediately want to listen."
- C.D. Di Guardia (Northeast Performer/Ep review)
"He's got a great voice and an even better knack for great songs."
- Billy Beard (Lizard Lounge/Toad)
"his voice just warms you up...like a big hug...fills the room with love"
Thanks Tom! Can't wait to hear your new record, you got release show hoo-ha set up yet? I have late-ish rehearsal tonight but will see if I can swing by PAs if we get done in time. -b
