Short Term Prophets

Short Term Prophets is an End Time Utopian* dance band. Our debut album "Something's Gonna Happen" was recorded in 2023 at Shabby Road Studio in Novato, CA, with David Kessner at the board. Featuring all original tunes and the Prophets' punchy-yet-soothing instrumentation, it's good for a tap of the toe, a scratch of the head, and a chuckle or two.

“Something's Gonna Happen" is available on all major streaming sites. Mash the link below to hear a sample cut on Spotify.


 

* End Time Utopianism is a school of thought centered around the notion that most forms of Doomsaying are destructive in themselves. For example, running around shouting "it's all over!" is unhelpful, way presumptuous, and too often used as an excuse to do nothing. 

The End-Time Utopian accepts that Humans in all eras have lived in strange days, and feels that approaching the very real challenges of our times with curiosity and hope is more creative, alive and fun.

Jaydub and Dino

Jaydub and Dino is an acoustic power duo featuring my longtime friend and collaborator Dennis Cordellos and myself. Our primal yet sophisticated sound and epic repertoire of original songs and evocative covers from all eras will enhance any event- from concerts to tinkly wallpaper gigs- we like it all.

Jaydub and Dino have 3 excellent studio albums:

Hipster Burden was recorded live in 2016 at Jackalope Studios, Santa Rosa, Ca. 

Engineered and mixed by Doug Jayne, with cover design and photos by Jami Jamison, the album reflects some Human Condition stuff the guys were thinking about at the time.

Hipster Burden is available on all major streaming sites. Hit the link below to hear a sample cut on Spotify.

Eclectic Ain't No Cussword is also a live in studio effort, produced in 2012 at Jackalope Studio in Santa Rosa, CA with the lovely and talented Doug Jayne at the board. Photos and cover by Jami Jamison.

Here, the lads did original tunes in diverse styles and musical vibes, reflecting the smorgasbord of influences absorbed along the way.

Eclectic Ain't No Cussword is available to stream and download at all major sites. Whack link below for a sample track on Spotify.

Porch Groove is Jaydub and Dino's debut effort, recorded by the one and only Roger Tschann at Grizzly Studio in Petaluma, Ca, the crucible for the live in studio Jaydub and Dino sound, tried originally just to see if they could get away with it. Cover/Photos by Jami Jamison.
