That... That...
Released on February 17th, 2023; That... is my second solo album. With encouragement from modern industry pros, That... contains less than half the number of songs that were on my first effort. The industry has changed quite a bit since I first started in music. Today's listener has many distractions and little time to take in much of anything... 18 or 19 tracks at once is too much, overwhelming at ...
"The Nickel Song" written by Melanie Sofka, seemed perfect for poking election year fun at politics at large. You don't have to be on one side or the other to see what a circus it has become.

I almost called the album "Opiate of the Masses", and I toyed with the idea of sub-titling it "Things We Believe". At any rate, ...

Thieving Dogz, TD II & You Are Here, Right Where They Want You.
 Thieving Dogz was originally named Hand Over Fist, before being informed that a Black Sabbath cover band (Hanover Fist) had made it all but impossible for any band to legally hold a similar name, and they were prepared to defend their trademark status. The first album was quickly pulled from the marketplace and with a new name (inspired by something said by my brother Richard Arnold) and a new logo, ...

The Arnold Family Sings...
The first recording I was on was as a boy of 7. My Mother and my two brothers, Terrie and Jerry DelMontier sang A' Capella Gospel from 1968 - 1972; and in June of 1970 we were recorded by sound engineer Phil Dowdy in the original sanctuary of Rock Church at 640 Kempsville Rd, Virginia Beach, VA, which is now a gymnasium for their school. It was titled "The Arnold ...
