The Blunder Children

About Me

Matt & Pat are brothers who record music in their makeshift studio.Though Patrick has been in other groups who have played around town (Commission of 300, Scabie Unit, Klarc Qent, Stupid Kazoo, Die Sy Lei, Wasteland Jazz Ensemble), The Blunder Children will probably remain a recording project.We've gotten a good amount of airplay on community, public, and college stations around the US - KPFA & WFMU respectively, with our first and only demo release, The Blunder Children (self titled).We hope to release another demo CD with other music recorded during 2002-2005 to kind of "wrap up" that recording "era" for us.That's about "it.""Thank" you.
