Leopold & Company

Leopold and Company is a collaborative effort among Darby Stowan, M. C. Prufrock, and whatever other ragtag band of musicians we assimilate into our funky surreal collective. We are all individuals...except for some of us. The idea for this effort flowed from a conversation about composing songs about weird news stories. Thus, "No One Was Injured" (composed via text message over the course of 2 hours on a Saturday), "State Hwy 120 at Midnight", and "Hamburger Strangler" were born. Their respective news stories are below: "No One Was Injured" : https://www.mlive.com/news/grand-rapids/2014/10/trombone-playing_clown_fires_g.html "Hamburger Strangler": https://www.mlive.com/news/bay-city/2014/10/bay_city_man_accused_of_beatin_1.html "State Hwy 120 at Midnight": https://www.cbsnews.com/sacramento/news/car-hood-bears-fire-car-truckee/ We continue to write music inspired by odd news stories as well as other songs, some that are re-imaginings of songs we performed with a former band.
