16: Bamboo Umbrella
"I'm in the eye of a hurricane. The skies are blue and it never rains, you can touch me, I told ya man, I don't feel a thing." Check out this episode in which James and Nathan of Farewell Teddy dive into their song, "Bamboo Umbrella" — a vintage rock tune full of sizzling guitars, gaudy solos, and honest lyrics about the temptation to throw on a pair of shades, grab a cocktail, and shut out the world... maybe even at your own peril.Do you like Farewell Teddy’s music?Share this podcast with a friend who might enjoy their songs and the stories behind them!Find all Farewell Teddy links here:Listen to Farewell Teddy on SpotifyListen to Farewell Teddy on Apple MusicKeep up with Farewell Teddy on InstagramKeep up with Farewell Teddy on TikTokCheck out all of Farewell Teddy's LinksFull Farewell Teddy Bio:There's no way anyone is actually reading this. So, really we can say whatever we want—anything at all... Llama! Bakersfield! Carbonated Soda Water! Llama again! If you're still reading — congratulations, you passed the test. Farewell Teddy is an indie rock duo that no one's ever heard of from Atlanta, GA, USA. James and Nathan (founding members/only members) both love making as much original music as they possibly can in their spare time. They write, record, and produce all their own stuff ... and that should impress you. Their style has been called "Eclectic" and "Amazing" by the band themselves. They've also been described as, "Like the Beatles, but more country," by some person. Farewell Teddy draws from their deep and vast pool of artistic influences — citing everyone from the Beatles, the Kinks, Wilco, and Hank Williams to Oasis, Jack Johnson (the musician), Jack Johnson (the boxer), and God (the deity) as inspiration. If you want to get in touch, send them an email at [email protected]. And if you like their music ... they want to say: THANK YOU! If you don't like their music, then they'd like to say: IT'S PROBABLY BEST IF WE SEE OTHER PEOPLE.*** For anyone taking umbrage (yea UMBRAGE) with the fact that Farewell Teddy records the occasional cover song, despite having said that they write all their own stuff ... of course that is an exception. We ... er ... THEY are not liars — promise!

14: Prendergast
"I think somebody's trying to kill me. I think somebody wants me dead. Won't find 'em on the back of no milk carton flap, you'll find 'em right there in your chest."Okay, so the guys in Farewell Teddy know that lyrics like the ones you just read probably won't be getting them a Grammy nomination any time soon— but that doesn't stop them from exploring their track, "Prendergast" — a dark, fever dream of a tune, packed with allusions to the assasination of Chicago mayor, Carter Harrison III in 1893, an act which not only ended a man's life but brought the entire 1893 Chicago World's Fair to a bitter end.At its core, this song is a strange, surreal glimpse into the human heart — full of fear, paranoia, and impending doom. With rhythmic banjos, pounding percussion, and haunting chants, this song will give you chills in the best way possible. So take a listen as the creators of tune talk about the overlap of personal art set against the backdrop of the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition.Do you like Farewell Teddy’s music?Share this podcast with a friend who might enjoy their songs and the stories behind them!Find all Farewell Teddy links here:Listen to Farewell Teddy on SpotifyListen to Farewell Teddy on Apple MusicKeep up with Farewell Teddy on InstagramKeep up with Farewell Teddy on TikTokCheck out all of Farewell Teddy's LinksFull Farewell Teddy Bio:There's no way anyone is actually reading this.

13: Werewolf in Disguise (Album Version + Acoustic Version)
What would you say if we were to tell you that we're really werewolves in disguise? Don't be fooled by our costumes, baby — these are just suits & ties.Take a listen as James and Nathan break down another one of their beloved Farewell Teddy tunes.

12: Huxley, Party of One
"Huxley, Party of One" ranks as one of Farewell Teddy's darkest songs to date. You can practically feel the thunder in your bones, smell the sour tobacco smoke in your nostrils, and see the dancing shadows cast by candlelight in your mind's eye when you hear this underworldly ballad.But there's something even deeper beneath this subterranean den of iniquity where Lady Folly beckons — namely the desire to indulge in things we know will destroy us. But perhaps even deeper still, this song calls out with a wail and a whimper for a chance at redemption.So turn the lights down, the volume up, and listen along as the guys in Farewell Teddy discuss "Huxley, Party of One."Do you like Farewell Teddy’s music?Share this podcast with a friend who might enjoy their songs and the stories behind them!Find all Farewell Teddy links here:Listen to Farewell Teddy on SpotifyListen to Farewell Teddy on Apple MusicKeep up with Farewell Teddy on InstagramKeep up with Farewell Teddy on TikTokCheck out all of Farewell Teddy's LinksFull Farewell Teddy Bio:There's no way anyone is actually reading this.

10: A Friendly Announcement from All the Fellas at the Ballpark (Out of Left Field, To Be Precise)
We get it. There are a million songs featuring a strange, old-timey a cappella rendition of stream-of-consciousness lyrics being performed by a fictional, late 1800s era baseball team that sounds like if David Lynch directed a surreal, turn-of-the-century ad spot. But we hope this one cuts through the noise.

They've also been described as, "Like the Beatles, but more country," by some person. Farewell Teddy draws from their deep and vast pool of artistic influences — citing everyone from the Beatles, the Kinks, Wilco, and Hank Williams to Oasis, Jack Johnson (the musician), Jack Johnson (the boxer), and God (the deity) as inspiration. If you want to get in touch, send them an email at [email protected]. And if you like their music ... they want to say: THANK YOU! If you don't like their music, then they'd like to say: IT'S PROBABLY BEST IF WE SEE OTHER PEOPLE.*** For anyone taking umbrage (yea UMBRAGE) with the fact that Farewell Teddy records the occasional cover song, despite having said that they write all their own stuff ... of course that is an exception. We ... er ... THEY are not liars — promise!

1: "Connoisseur of the Boulevard"
Join James & Nathan from Farewell Teddy as they kick off the inaugural episode of Tower of Songs, a podcast where the duo dives into the stories behind their songs and their music-making journey. In this episode, they’re revisiting "Connoisseur of the Boulevard", the first song they ever wrote together nearly ten years ago. This catchy, bittersweet indie rock tune holds deep meaning for both of them and serves as a perfect starting point for the show. Tower of Songs is about Farwell Teddy's vast and eclectic catalog of songs—and so much more. It’s about the stories, the creative process, and everything in between. Expect conversations that range from the deeply philosophical to the delightfully absurd, touching on everything from art and creativity to faith and life’s big questions, with plenty of laughs along the way.
