All Genres > Jazz > Traditional Jazz Combo > RECLINERLAND: Ideal Home Music Library

Mike Johnson is back again with another Reclinerland release. This time he has refocused his songwriting and has brought to life his Ideal Home Music Library. The catchy hook filled pop rock sound has been put away for this release, and a jazzy piano based sound has entered. And Mr. Johnson has brought on lots of new musicians & vocalists to make this sound complete including Chad Crouch (Blanket Music), Adam Selzer (Norfolk & Western), Colin Meloy (the Decemberists), and lots of others.

What is this all about? Well simply put they are showtunes written and performed by Reclinerland. Put another way is that they are the new standards... you know standards... those songs that people sing while gathered around a piano, sipping coctails, laughing, and enjoying the evening. Mr. Johnson has brought the standard back to life for the new era of hipsters. You like drinking coctails don't you? If not... don't you enjoy being filled with merriment while singing with friends, or even perfect strangers? Sure you do.

To make sure these new standards come to life, the CD comes with a 32 page booklet that includes all of the sheet music and lyrics. So you can bring it to your next shin-dig and impress your indie-rock friends with the new standards while downing someone else's gin, vodka, or whatever your drink of choice is.
