WATCH: Tejon Street Corner Thieves, “The Road”

Posted on by Editor

Artist: Tejon Street Corner Thieves
Hometown: Colorado Springs, Colorado
Song: “The Road”
Album: Thick as Thieves
Label: Liars Club/Regime Music Group

In Their Words: “‘The Road’ was filmed at the witches castle in Portland, Oregon. It was a 7-mile hike down into a shaded lush green valley. The house we filmed at was haunted by an old witch that was rumored to have eaten her own children for sacrifice. The song is about the party lifestyle and how sometimes it’s hard livin’ but how if you could go back you wouldn’t do anything different. It’s about how even after you pass on to the next life, or what have you, the party must still go on.” — Shawn D’Amario, Tejon Street Corner Thieves

In Their Words: “‘The Deal Rag’ had been a staple in our band since day one. It’s upbeat and fun as hell to play! It’s about when deals go wrong and you end up in a bad situation. Something we’re all too familiar with. We love the ragtime swing and the and the washboard solo rips. This is the first song we decided to put on Stolen Goods.

WATCH: Tejon Street Corner Thieves, “No Good” (Acoustic)

Posted on by Editor

Artist: Tejon Street Corner Thieves
Hometown: Colorado Springs, Colorado
Song: “No Good” (Acoustic)
Album: Monarch Sessions
Release Date: October 16, 2020
Label: Liars Club

In Their Words: “At first glance, ‘No Good’ is about being a party animal. But a more in-depth look reveals the struggle for acceptance and a teetering battle with impostor syndrome. It’s easier to be hard on yourself than it is to understand why people like you. The song is a reminder to practice a positive self-image even though it takes work. Monarch Sessions combines both audio and video mediums so that we were able to portray our most authentic and emotionally-fueled performance in a time when live music isn’t an option. The video accompaniment allows for an inside look at our own reactions to the songs as we perform them, adding a layer to the album that wouldn’t be achievable otherwise. We put our heart and soul into these songs and you can finally see it through Monarch Sessions.” — Connor O’Neal, Tejon Street Corner Thieves
