Influences Love... All the other awesome musicians that are our friends, inspiration, and support... The Seasons... high Fives... Clapping Hands... Picnics...The fantastic, generous, collaborative artists in the local scene....the big sky... people who feel lots and are consequently socially awkward... working at things we really care a lot about... and tea.
Sounds Like"the musical equivalent of pressed flowers between diary pages."

   About The Consonant C
Drawn together by love and a desire to make good music, The Consonant C is committed to creating interesting and inspiring experiences for their audiences. With two albums and a West Coast tour completed after less than two years of playing together, they have also proved themselves to be an uncommonly driven bunch.

Their lastest album, "Capes and Crowns", is now available, either in stores or by emailing the_consonant_c at hotmail.com.

an instructional video on how to double and cute music too!

"We like to create interesting experiences for our audiences, tell ghost stories, and howl like wolves. We feel sad that the ice on which polar bears stand is melting. We often get so excited about our shows that we dress up beforehand and forget to eat dinner. We are thinking of maybe keeping a stash of granola bars in our instrument cases to counteract this. Our sets are sometimes built around interesting themes, and they are always about loving each other and being honest, as well. We get really excited about working with other people in our community who are also making interesting or beautiful things. We love them and they help us out. There is a chinchilla that lives in the basement where we practice. We have created one full length album, and one ep. Recently we toured to LA and back. We all like riding bikes."

AMERICA AMERICA “WE THE PEOPLE”

LAND OF THE FREE HOME OF THE BRAVE
OUR COUNTRY “WE” MUST SAVE
IRAQ…..A WAR OF CHOICE WHERE IS OUR VOICE
SHOCK & AWE A WORLD EVENT
REMEMBER “WE” WENT ON LENT
INNOCENT BLOOD SPENT
HAVE “WE” SEEN THE FEMA WRATH
LET US TOGETHER DO THE MATH
OUR REPUTATION & WEALTH DESTROYED
IMPEACHMENT………….VOID
OUR DOLLAR IS DOWN
OUR INTELECTUAL PROPERTIES SOLD AROUND
OUR JOBS FREE TRADED AWAY
OUR PENSIONS STOLEN ONE DAY
NOW FREE MARKETS TAKE OUR HOMES TODAY
HEALTH CARE & EDUCATION STANDARDS A DISGRACE
OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM BY CLASS & RACE
OUR PORTS & BORDERS NOT SECURED TODAY
ALL THOSE TRILLIONS BUSH JR. THREW AWAY
“TERROR” HE DOES SAY
NOW WE THE PEOPLE STILL HAVE A SAY
NETWORK THIS TRUE IMAGE…THAT’S THE WAY
IF “WE” WANT TO STAY FREE
BE PATRIOTIC ONLY TO “WE”

POWER TO THE PEACEFUL

hi!

thanks for staying to look at us,
We were really sad that you played at the same time as us. we were crushed. we had planned to watch you before we played... although, we did get to see a nice eighty year old woman play some nice piano songs. that was nice

I hope we weren't too loud!

Hello Lovely Lovelies!

I don't know if you knew this, but your CD release show was on my birthday! Whoa! August 19 was super-triple-y special!

The Greenbelt Collective just played my new house here in PA. It was a wonderful Norther Blast of Awesomeness. We talked oh-so-lovingly about you all. We miss you.

Love,
Jrdn.
