The Lizards – Quartet Bio
The Lizards are a late-night piano lounge quartet devoted to exploring the edges of jazz, good manners, and structural integrity.

Hi. I’m really busy today, what with all that stuff going on. I’m conferring with friends in high places about what’s happening and how to deal with it.
Be excellent to each other
Be excellent to each other
Be good as you can be
Be kinder than Bambi
You think you are so cool

Be good as you can be
Be kinder than Bambi
Who cares what you know
Fancy places you go?
If you’re still nothin’ but a jerk?
Be excellent to each other
Be excellent to each other
Be good as you can be
Be kinder than Bambi

On sailing ships from roughly the 16th through the 19th centuries, nearly every major task required groups of sailors to exert force at exactly the same moment. Raising sails, hauling lines, turning capstans, pumping bilge water, or weighing anchor demanded coordinated effort. If twenty men pulled at slightly different times, energy was wasted and equipment could fail. Rhythm solved the problem. Continue reading
I’ve spent the entire night repairing various albums to make the songs within them be consistent in sound and general mood. The internet crapped out just as I was getting around to writing something or other, and just now came back on, so this is the blog for today. Continue reading

Once upon a time, music arrived as an authority structure.
You bought an LP.
You listened in the order chosen by the artist. Track one, track two, and so forth until the end of the record. Continue reading
Imagine a large rather cubic creative grid.
Across the top are ten lyric sheets.
Each lyric sheet contains the same words every time it is processed, but those words are not yet tied to any musical identity. Continue reading
