FAWM.ORG | T.C. Elliott

Artist Bio

Influences: Bottle Rockets, Holy Modal Rounders (Stampfel and Weber), Norman Blake, Hendrix, SRV, Buddy Guy, Classic Rock, Bluegrass, The Blues, Neil Young

If Neil Young and The Holy Modal Rounders had a litter of baby songwriters then T.C. Elliott would be the runt of the litter.

In January 2018 I released my first bandcamp album as a solo artist. You can find it here in digital:

Thanks, TC...I guess it was a zong for a couple days because I didn't say anything about it on the boards...things are different in March. Thanks for listening and leaving some words!
@mikeb 3 weeks

Thanks for the comment on my song!
@devin 5 weeks

Verily! I heard the riff that beat out DragonDreams in round 1... and I thought “hmm?”. I scrolled down and you tipped it off.

Special thanks to a certain metal guy, a founding fawmer, and Swampjaw for the extra voices!
@devin 5 weeks

Back in round 1 of the riff competition, you made a comment on one of the entries that caught my eye.

I was travelling at the time, and had to wait a week to check it out with a DAW.

What do you think? *I* think you were right...

E-mailed you... My answer (without knowing the question) is that you can use them for anything you want and I can send you WAVs if you need them. 😀

How about doing a Midwest Fawmstock in the autumn? It's a beautiful time of year here. Maybe this time we'd be able to find something closer to the city, given enough lead time.
@vomvorton 7 weeks

Cheers! Just had my first listen and it's a really strong fight. No BSS for this one, weird! Will listen a few more times before I write some reviews but I think Jerkatorium and Tuner's Union will be hard to beat.
@jmadison 7 weeks

Oh my goodness... I am stunned. Thank you so much for your comments and for picking my song for FAWM talk. I mean... There were over 10-freaking-thousand options and you featured one of my songs. (head explodes)
@hummingbear 7 weeks

There's country-ish, balladeer-ish Fawmer who always delivers a good song @famouspatrick. His songs are downloadable. Your radio list is prolly miles long by now. Radio show's been fun, still have a couple to go back and listen to.

Dropped by w/ possible fawmling for your world-renowned radio program. Acoustic, bluegrass, folk - @apauls. Check him out.
@valeriecox 7 weeks

Dude! 28 songs. You're rocking it! I just popped over to see what you're up to and bam! Winning. 😀 I'm going for 28 myself, but time is getting short. Hope to make it. Congrats on your double win!
@billysea 7 weeks

I think the song does come across from the POV of the "stalker". I think in their mind, they aren't even stalking at all. Sorry if my comments came across differently. I like your "shrug" though, That is where I was on my last several. They weren't where I wanted them to be but my guitar skills couldn't pull off what was in my head so I just posted them and considered them good enough.
Don't think I'll be hitting Missouri this trip but it IS on my beer bucket list so will have to make a trip out there at some point. I'll be sure to look you up when I do 😀
@karlsburg25 7 weeks

Yes matey feel free to send the back track . If you could email an mp3 to me that’s the best way for me to get it on garage band on the phone . My email should be up there but just in case is karl harrison25(at)hotmail(dot)co(dot)uk 👍
@treble 7 weeks

Thanks for your kind and insightful comments on my skirmish song, Waiting for Something Better. Sometimes it's hard to know when to fish and when to cut bait, but you're right, my undeerlying theme was to be true to oneself.

@rickamorphis Feb 19

Hey man thanks for the kind analysis on my collab w/ Liz...I still blame you for getting me involved here all those yrs ago when you mentioned fawm on a br-600 forum! And yes, one of the pleasures of being an adult is being able to own my own vibraslap. 😀
@candle Feb 19

Thanks for all your great comments, TC! Now I have to catch up on the rest of your songs!

See You In The Shadows…
@oblivionratula Feb 19

Thanks for your comments on my Fake-It take. I know it's been a while, but I've been FAWM-deficient. I really appreciate the details you mentioned.
@theodamus Feb 17

Thank you so much! 😁
@acromie Feb 17

Thanks for listening to Hug a Snowman and for your lovely compliments! I'm glad you liked it.
@darkmantle Feb 17

Thanks for your comment on the song "You are".

If you're referring to the verse chords, the last line takes the C major, and slides it up the neck 2 frets making some sort of D monstrosity that enjoy using. 😀
@jimwood150 Feb 17

Thanks for your encouraging remarks about Poker Face.
@jwhanberry Feb 15
@caitlinpieper Feb 15

Hey thanks for the nice comment on my tune. I sent it over to your email. Looking forward to checking out some of your material too. Have an awesome day <3
@lavishdude Feb 12

!! Sorry for making you re-live that horror 😞
Would a rock song with organ in it cheer you up?

@oddaustin Feb 11

Regarding the Dog ending, I wouldn't be so sure the ending's all that positive. It's doesn't technically say what happens. We just know what the dog thinks is happening. So... good on you for your optimism.
@dragondreams Feb 10

You are very kind. 😊
@downfallroad Feb 10

Yeah Duuuuude!
@jwhanberry Feb 10
@metalfoot Feb 10

Well, I am glad you liked my take on the FakeIt Challenge. I might have had an unfair advantage in that as the writer of the words/chords they are in my motif to start with though!
@theresaj Feb 10

Hey, thanks for playing That Little Red Dress on the FAWM talk!
@aneil Feb 8

Thanks for your comment on invitation I may have wrote the words but @Marthie sang it sweetly! Have a Fun Feb!
@francessmith Feb 7

Hello TC, thanks for your comment on Gibraltar Hill. The Hank Williams in hell challenge was a really good one, wasn't it. I've enjoyed the songs.
@splittybooms Feb 7

Hey man! Glad to see you here, too.
You were a big help during 50/90 and gave a lot of encouragement and support.
I've been over on a couple facebook music groups doing skirmishes and challenges and the like.
Just getting going here...but I see you're already almost there! Nice!
Will be checking you out...
@metalfoot Feb 5

I know. It can be hard to deliver footlings!
@tuneslayer2018 Feb 4

I had to laugh at "Castle Pigsty." When my wife gets into an especially grumpy mood her favorite complaint, which hits me like nails on a chalkboard, is "This place is a pigsty." (I have fantasies of taking her to one of the factory farms in North Carolina and saying "No, THIS is a pigsty," but I like staying married.) Anyway maybe I will have to rename Chez Banjo to Chez Pigsty for a few days to own the fact that unlike godliness, cleanliness is next to impossible.
@wacha Feb 4

Thank you for your lovely feedback on "Trying Hard to Breathe".
@judypie Feb 3

Thanks so much for listening 😀
@owl Feb 3

Thanks for your comments! I was considering coming to listen to your Songfight entry too but decided to wait till they're all posted and check out something else first 😀
@wacha Feb 3

Thank you for your very kind words on "The Journey", I don't use effects all that much but felt that song called for it. The Tanglewood is a new addition to my arsenal and I'm loving using it on the softer songs.
@sapient Feb 3

Thanks for the listen! Yeah, that tail was supposed to be long, but not that long! Thanks for saying - I've sorted it out now 😀
@haim Feb 3

Thanks! I like your style in song #6 "my favorite monster". I bought this year a new electric guitar so I'm looking for inspirations everywhere this fawm.
@mrmule Feb 3

thanks for the comment. Yeah, it is a rusting cymbal. I tried to make a waterphone out of a bowl and only ended up having a bowl with rusty water leaking all over the place, it made that thing too.
@audrey Feb 3

Thanks for listening and for the kind words on my song "Something Wicked this Way Comes".
@candle Feb 3

Thanks for the comment on Flying Saucers. I'm glad you enjoyed the Radio vocals and the piano. It was a lot of fun to make.

See You In The Shadows…
@evinwolverton Feb 2

TC! Thank you so much for having my song on the show. I guess I’m a Vulvatron now.

Looking forward to getting back to signal consistent enough to stream your stuff
@sourcedecay Feb 2

Thanks for the comment and the note on posting to each other's actual profile page!
@pfaffbrill Feb 2

Thanks for the comment! Have a great FAWM!
@heliosonorous Feb 1

Thanks for the welcome! Have a great month!
@johnstaples Feb 1

Thanks T.C.! Regarding the link, are you referring to the built-in player? If so I have tried - and _ and removing those characters leaving just alpha but nothing makes it work in Firefox for me. I just tried your song again and it does not play using the player either. I think the website is getting a wee bit long in the tooth!

Hope you have a great FAWM; you sure got off to a great start!
@audrey Jan 31

Hope you have a great FAWM. 😀
@enigma4711 Jan 30

Happy FAWM! 😀
@popmythology Jan 29

As ever, you are kind and gracious, T.C. Thank you so much. It's good to see you...
@writeandwrong Jan 28

Aww, thanks, but a big THANK YOU for doing the list!!! I think more people are lurking it and perhaps just not responding tho. Lots of great prompts!
@tabitha Jan 28

Thanks for the warm welcome. Happy FAWM
@nuj4x Jan 25

RAWR! 😉
@jwhanberry Jan 24

Hello TC. Happy FAWM 2019. Let's have another great month.
@tiller2 Jan 24

Welcome back, TC, and may your fawm be fun, healthy, and productive.
@lvgd09 Jan 21

Hi TC, I am stopping by to say hello! I still remember your support from way back when I was a fawmling, and I still appreciate that. That was so excellent back in 2009 when you contacted me to remind me that FAWM started. Thanks for that and I have a song to remember. You'll see in the forum thread.
@guatecoop Jan 20

So you want to drum? I understand that you have been practicing.....what do you want to accomplish as a drummer this year? That is kind of broad, but maybe I can be of some help.....Drumming is one of those things that seems so simple, but really is not. I feel the same way about the bass. Both can really change the vibe of a song to take it to a different and better place. They both can limit a song, too...
@dasbinky Jan 19

How the drumming going? Do I smell some battle of beginning drummers as an entertaining random collaboration? 😁
@coolparadiso Jan 19

Better start playing that new pretty geeetar 😀. Happy Fawm
@dasbinky Jan 18

You, sir, a gentleman and a scholar. Of Rawk.
@kahlo2013 Jan 18

I am ready to be amazed once again by your creativity, music, soulful songs, and productivity! Love your music and looking forward to this!!! Happy FAWMing!
@jibbidy34 Jan 18

Well fancy seeing you here 😀
@cairobraga Jan 17

oh-ow, you got mail! 😉
@alamous Jan 17

Hey you too! Sadly my calendar looks like it'll be super crowded so I'll be participating but don't know how much time I can actually have for FAWM because Work, Band-stuff and Roller Derby seem to be eating all my time 😁
@valeriecox Jan 16

Hey T! You've been doing this almost as long as I have, but I think you're surpassed in number of songs written. Go you! 14 more? No problem. :😅
@helenseviltwin Jan 16

Not only am I around, I shall be jobless for at least some of February (intentionally), so will have tonnes of time to write songs. Hooray!
@hummingbear Jan 16

Howdy + Ready = Rowdy. Ready, Rowdy FAWM!
@kahlo2013 Jan 16

And then there was FAWM! Looking forward to it!
@cts Jan 16

Wuss up, my dude! Hope all is well and look forward to what springs from the well of your ideas!
@mosley Jan 16

Hey TC, Happy FAWMing!! Looking forward to hearing what you come up with this year!
@oneslowtyper Jan 16

Hi TC, good to hear from you! I know you're as pumped as anybody to get this year going! Wishing you TONS of inspiration for FAWM 2019.
Cheers,
John
@hummingbear Jan 16

Happy FAWMing, TC.
@stevenwesleyguiles Jan 16

FAAAWWWWWMMMMM!!!!
@everettcinaed Jan 15

Mm, yeah, I'm planning on being around this year. Just hadn't gotten around to changing my profile.
@vomvorton Jan 15

In a way I quite like the challenge of trying to create a good song from a bad title? But in various other ways, I do not. Still working on something for Doom With a View though...
@ralphhogaboom Jan 15

Hey, I remember you. <3
@adnama17 Jan 15

Oh no! You again!? FML...

😁
@vomvorton Jan 15

Ha, I know what you mean. But... I'll probably roll any well-timed fights into my FAWM, to be honest. Although I hope we get some better titles to work with soon!
@deannasweidel Jan 15

I am ready to lyric! LOL - You know i need others to "music" 😀
@standup Jan 15

Hey there! Looking forward to this.
@fearlessflight2014 Jan 15

Yay TC! I’m sure I’ll catch you in the slack some time soon...
@chasingandromeda Jan 15

Welcome back! May the piggy bring goodness and joy!
@writeandwrong Jan 15

Ha! Yes, I'm ready to Jello... and FAWM!! 😁 Hope 2019 brings many awesome tunes to you this year! Looking forward to hearing what you do! So many awesome titles on your Facebook group page!!!!
@ferry0123 Jan 15

Hey.. thank you for your welcoming words. Have a(nother) enjoyable February!
@sw1n3flu Jan 15

‘Lo
@dragondreams Jan 15

Too much time on my hands is the reason for the practise routines, T.C. 😉
That, and me being a ways up the autism spectrum when it comes to focusing on technique.
The new amp is a beast. I'll blog about it, or do a write up on FB so you can find out more.
