Rob Taxpayer literally creates a song every week for a club. He calls that club...The Song of the Week Club! Lend your support and help more incredible music get made! Patreon.com/SongOfTheWeekClub
@@fullonion2474 It's $1 a month. Obviously you can give more if you can afford it, but you get all the songs for 1 USD per month. You can panhandle that in 30 mins and buy yourself lunch after. (Obviously the online medium means Credit, so that's a class obstacle, but the monetary cost is minor for what you get).
Rob is the best, every record I've ever bought from him comes with a little drawing and note. That personal touch shows just how much he cares. Thank you both for this awesome video.
Yes! And we had such a good time - we hung out all day and kinda toured LA. He even introduced me to another artist, Clarke and the Himselfs, who I loved so much that I recorded them weekend before last! Hopefully in 2020 I'll head out to New Orleans to visit Rob, and he's gonna try to bring The Taxpayers/Trusty Snakes around LA so we can record them too :)
He's part of The Taxpayers. I've only heard Rob perform solo one other time, but they're great. Here's the other solo performance ua-cam.com/video/xAav0QwY970/v-deo.html
Others have said this, but he looks exactly like Sean Bonette from AJJ!! I would say the music is sorta similar too. Not totally, but as they're both folk & punk it makes sense, no?

Howdy Bruno, Rob here. Thanks for learning how to play the song, that is pretty cool. If you're interested, I did a piano tutorial for it on the Song of the Week Club for +Plus members a little while back: www.patreon.com/posts/how-to-play-it-23136651
@@robtaxpayer saw this 11 months too late! it's one of my favorite songs to play on the piano even tho i figured it all out by ear. i might do a cover on instagram and tag you (and might join the club too!) stay safe xx

The fact you can describe Rob as a punk jazz musician just makes me so fucking happy

Hahah have you met party bear?
Is that the name of his bear drawing? then yes. haha.
@@fields3119 yesss you have met party bear!
I was thinking this guy sounds exactly like the taxpayers singer... Everything's coming together now lol
Such a cool, distinct voice, right?
@@AFistfulOfVinyl i personally love it like hell
lol what gave it away?
Getting Rob Taxpayer on AFoV is the greatest thing that's happened this year.
Man... I thought he killed it, until he absolutely slayed it. More or less.
Wow... I was trying to figure out a joke about how he looks kinda like sean bonnet, but holy fuck his voice got me by surprise fucking good job man
Rob and the taxpayers are fucking awesome. I play Everything is Awful when I get to work everyday.
I saw on reddit that one of your goals was to have Rob taxpayer on the show, looks like you did it!

Folk Punk, Fuck Yeah.

inb4 guitar tabs buuut if there’s anything else
Holy shit that slaps
so good! could you maybe get us the lyrics for this? trying to learn it on the piano rn.
Steps unsteady, whatever the cause
Yeah, the wheels aren’t ready to move it along
Goodbye, balance: balance always is a lost cause
Alarm bells ringing, yawns and winks
The water isn’t safe to cook in or drink
Goodbye, balance: balance doesn’t care what you think
Unbending membranes flex and pop
Unsinkable ships always sink
Sober drunks and cleaned up junkies
Wobble out along the brink
Yeah yeah yeah
Support beams teeter, sway, and moan
And your taxi will not take you home
Goodbye, balance: balance always leaves you alone
Yeah, the roof is bending in the wind
And your mind is filled with mortal sin
Goodbye, balance: balance never lets you win
This world, this world is falling apart
Yeah this world, this world is falling apart
The people you love are all you have to lean on
So treat them well
This world, this world is falling apart
Yeah this world, this world is falling apart
The people you love are all you have to lean on
So treat them well, yeah
