Only The Spoiled Chefs are bold enough to write songs about such holidays as Labor Day, Election Day, and Arbor Day. And only The Spoiled Chefs are talented enough to make an album of unusual holiday songs sound this great.
Bio / Background
"'Songs About Holidays and Other Things' by The Spoiled Chefs captures everything that is great and/or weird about American holidays...in a toe tapping, musical sort of way.
"That someone even tried to write a song about 'Labor Day, or 'Election Day,' or 'Columbus Day,' is worth mentioning. But that The Spoiled Chefs not only did so, but did it well should be worth some sort of patriotic prize.
"What is so sharp about their truthful, yet sometimes hilariously cornball lyrics is that you just never know whether these guys (Matt Farley and Kevin McGee) are serious about their music, or just insanely prolific.
"Between 'Songs About the Holidays,' and their previous album, 'Songs About Food,' it's certain that The Spoiled Chefs now have a banquet-full of delightful songs under their belt... I mean apron."
--Review by Joe Chiappetta, www.sillydaddy.net
The Spoiled Chefs have done it again.
↓ more ↓In response to the overwhelming demand for a follow-up to their debut album, SONGS ABOUT FOOD, Matt Farley and Kevin McGee have put together a collection of songs that's somehow better!
After celebrating food, it only seems natural that The Chefs would celebrate holidays with their second release. Rather than boring the listener with a collection of run-of-the-mill Christmas tunes, Farley and McGee have written outrageously catchy odes to holidays that aren't often set to music. And yet, listening to a song like "Happy Labor Day," you can't help but wonder why more songwriters haven't written about that holiday, as well as Columbus Day and Arbor Day, just to name a few.
No longer just a novelty act, The Spoiled Chefs show themselves to be blossoming artists who cannot be confined to exploring just one theme. And so they branch away from holiday songs for half of this album and focus on songs about "other things."
Thanks to this decision, we're graced with the charming, 1950's-inspired tribute to first love, "Krista Lee," the country-rock ode to carefree days of "Two Trucks Ago She Was a Standard," and "I Will Write Her," a track that needs to be heard to be understood. Yes, "I Will Write Her" will catch even the most casual listener off-guard with its intensity. Anyone who believed Kevin McGee unable of conveying raw emotion through his vocals will gladly declare themselves incorrect after hearing this piece.
To say, "The Chefs have done it again," isn't quite right. What they did on SONGS ABOUT FOOD and what they do on SONGS ABOUT HOLIDAYS AND OTHER THINGS are different accomplishments. There's more of the same high quality music. But this is a new sound with a different theme by two men who cannot help but create some of the best music being produced today.
