The FuMP
by Robert G Parent
June 14, 2008

Their bio from the podsafe music network is

"Rob Balder. Possible Oscar. Raymond and Scum. The Great Luke Ski. Tom Smith. Sudden Death. Worm Quartet. Robert Lund and Spaff. And some of their crazy friends. We are The FuMP -- The Funny Music Project. And we're redefining comedy music, twice a week! "

Check out there recent song, "She's Always a Clinton".  It's a parody of Billy Joel's "She's always a woman". Awesome song and so true, IMHO.

One cool thing about their site is how they sell their parodies.  You can either pay for one song at a time at $.99 or subscribe to a monthly fee RSS subscriptions feed at either $4.99 or $9.99. A new idea to buy music on the web that I hope other artists use. 

Check out their website at http://www.thefump.com/. You can also check out their my space page at http://www.myspace.com/thefump.  And check out their stuff on You Tube just do a search on the FuMP. 

for the Podsafe Music Network goto http://music.podshow.com

the songs I played are "the fump and the brobdingnagian bards - "exclamations", the fump and Marc Gunn - "the cat came back from the cat's perspective", the fump and Rob Balder "Muppet Laboratories", the fump and Tom Smith "ELUA dancing", and the fump and Sudden Death "Cellular Degeneration"

his bio on the Podsafe Music Network:
Damh is a modern-day Bard whose spirituality, and love of folk tradition, is expressed through his music, storytelling and poetry. Drawing on the Bardic traditions his songs are both entertaining and educational, weaving a tapestry of myth, peace, and anthems that speak directly to the heart.

His website is http://www.paganmusic.co.uk/

His new album is out and called "The Cauldron Born".  It can be found at "Bardic Arts online store", "CDBaby", "iTunes" and "Woven Wheat Whispers". 

He is also a poet and you can find his poetry at his website.  In particular, check out his poem "Two Faces", awesome poem.

He not only has a website, but a blog, a my space page, a You Tube channel.  He is a well connected artist with a message that comes out in his songs and poetry.  Visit his page at http://www.paganmusic.co.uk/. 

I played four songs that he put up on the Podsafe Music Network are "the Wheel", "Pagan Ways", "Isis Unveiled", and "Lady of the Silver Wheel".
