Central Services presents The Board of Education!

About Me

A fun, witty, and smart musical romp created by Seattle band Central Services, fronted by a former elementary school teacher and published children’s novelist, written for the tweens but with something for all ages. Kids (and kids at heart) get ready to ROCK! CONTACT US at [email protected], or here on myspace!Download our NEW ALBUM at Amazon and iTunes!

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 16/02/2007
Band Website: www.thelonelytomato.com
Band Members: Central Services members Kevin Emerson, Jeff Blancato, Eric Goetz and Andrea Wittgens.
Influences: the brains and wit of kids, which we feel, in general, do not get enough credit. We are also influenced by that suspicion that relatively normal things, like tomatoes or astrophysics, have interesting stories to tell. CS' Board of Education would also like to thank the weather, the 1920's, Martians, Veronica Mars, the electron transport chain (and cellular respiration in general!!), inchworms, and all the giant corporations of the world, and others, for giving us so much to sing about.
Sounds Like: A kind of annoying, yet somewhat interesting, under-trained teacher, who you know cares a lot, and yet sometimes goes on and on, but at the end of the day, you'd probably admit, taught you something interesting, despite the mess in the room, and the TV shows you missed.
Record Label: unsigned
Type of Label: Major
