Photo Unavailable	Tar Beach - Milkboy Sessions
	Location	Philadelphia, PA
	Initial Impression	They've got a violin player - I can't wait to hear this CD.
Notable Lyric	"And each time I see a picture of that darkest of days, I just can't understand why they try to take our dreams away."
Factoid	This 4-song demo was recorded at Milkboy Recording Studio in Philly, hence the title. A 2nd tidbit, the band was formed in Easton, PA home of the Crayola Factory.
Serve With	Your favorite friends and a good mood.
Comments	This CD is fantastic! If it's available in your area run right out and buy it. I don't even know what to say, I like the music that much. These are some amazing musicians. The violin adds an unexpected texture to the music. Hip, funky, danceable songs with strong vocals and stronger percussion. Reviews have compared Tar Beach to Dave Matthews and Blues Traveler, but I think that pays a terrible disservice to the band. The music is fresh, imaginative and inspired.
