About Me

Formed in Cleveland back in the 90s The Truffula Seeds have since had some changes in lattitude. Blending their influences they have come up with a sound all their own. Sometimes you hear something along the lines of Shooter Jennings or old REM...sometimes you hear echos of the Lemonheads or Spindoctors...sometimes, it's Billy Bragg (without the English accent of course)...maybe you hear someone else...if so tell us we'd love to hear your perspective and feedback...so please send us contructive feedback. Working on new songs and improving our recording all the time so check back often if you like what we're doing and share our music with a friend.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 8/14/2006
Band Members: Douglas: Acoustic/electric guitar, lead guitar, bass, keyboards, harmonica and drums.
Influences: Ryan Adams, Shooter Jennings, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Social Distortion, R.E.M. (well the old stuff anyway), Counting Crows, Nineteen Wheels, Simon and Garfunkle, Bob Dylan (again, the old stuff), The Indigo Girls, Lou Reed, Son Volt, Hootie and the Blowfish (aww...don't even say it...ignore the overplayed stuff and give the rest a chance), Rancid, The Refreshments, blah blah blah (not a band just the end of my rant for now) Support your local independent musicians wherever you are and check out these bands: 19 Wheels, Truckstop Coffee, Thursday's Child, The Starlings, Jeff Stewart... Not sure it will help but for search purposes former bands I was in: Dimestore Prophets, Edmund F. and Freight.
Sounds Like: Well...I guess if Shooter Jennings was driving across the country in a dusty old RV with Johnny Cash riding shotgun, Michael Stipe and Peter Buck from REM were playing cards in the back with Mike Ness from Social Distortion and Ryan Adams and Billy Bragg were taking a nap in the bunks, and they all wrote a song about it...it might sound like The Truffula Seeds.
Type of Label: None
