It’s been a long time but we’re trying to put our best foot forward…

Here's BrayDee hard at work mixing a new song for the upcoming TZBD EP. Say THAT three times fast!

01/20/2022

BrayDee and I played a gig today on the patio of a community's activity center. Giant fire tables all over, space heaters, people dancing, playing yard games on the turf. We even had people camped out on the nearby golf course listening to us. Great reactions after every tune and easily 250 people there (a big crowd for us!) I can live off that energy for weeks! What a blast!

Thank you for the love and support in 2021! We'll see you in the New Year. Stay safe and have fun!

Howdy, fun friends:

A squirming, serpentine story exists behind this post, but lemme just nutshell the thing: Here's Tina's radio-host friend David Thomas spinning a song from waaaaay back when TZ fronted an Arizona-based rock band. So if you ever wondered how Your Favorite Gender Nonconforming Ukulelist & Vocalist might sound as an arena-rock lead singer behind thunder drums and soaring guitars, this is your lucky day!

I need to mention also, this is the one-and-only BrayDee on bass guitar and backing vocals!

The Rock Show on Black Cat Radio presents Your Favourite Gender Nonconforming Ukulelist & Vocalist Legend Tina Zee. This song from Tina's history in her band from 10 years ago No Regret is "Live It", a belter of a track and first time on UK radio! Enjoy!

10/29/2021

TZ: "We won't fake it ..."
BrayDee: "That's what she said."

Do you like classic rock 'n roll? Do you like GnR? How about whistling? If you answered yes to all of the above - are you ever in luck!

10/06/2021

Tonight! 9 p.m. ish Arizona time, BrayDee and me playing 1-2-3-4-5 LIVE! Did your request make the setlist?

10/04/2021

Whatcha got, peeps? Whadya wanna hear?
Facebook Live show tentatively scheduled this Wednesday, Oct. 6, around 9 p.m. Arizona time.

09/22/2021

YouTube! Us! We're on it!

BrayDee and Tina Zee cover this cool double-ukulele song.

08/29/2021

Do you like "Runaway" by Bon Jovi?

Do you like "Runaway" by Del Shannon?

You want both? At the same time?? WITH A KAZOO SOLO??

You're welcome, world.

08/24/2021

Sparing no expense when it comes to signage! Hellz, yes, that’s a glittered border!

07/29/2021

AZ friends, we'd LOVE to see you at the debut!

07/17/2021

BrayDee and I recorded this Red Hot Chili Peppers tune a few days ago and I think it might be my fave recording of us. Not only because we didn't mess up the tune (yea!) but because the banter really captures our relationship and how much fun we have as a duo.

Pay special attention to how I introduce BrayDee's name in the second verse!!

Enjoy!

07/15/2021

It really is, you know ...

It's a monumental day here at TZBD Experience! We just booked our first gig!

Details to come, but local peeps, PLEASE keep Thursday, Aug. 26, at 8:30 p.m. open.

Will spill more beans later! Muah!

We're so excited to be able to share this with you today! This is a song called "Everything." It's a love song Tina Zee wrote recently for her Sweet Baby Cakes.

According to TZ, "I started this song by playing with food-related lyrics. I actually named it "The Food Love Song" in my computer. As I was tinkering on it, I decided to ask my marvelously talented friend Alexis Hillyard of Stump Kitchen for foodie ideas I might use. But instead, she offered up some other lyric suggestions, and they were just poetic and lovely, so I used them.

That morphed the song from a food love song, to a song about, well, everything.

I had the verses written but struggled with the chorus. I had three versions of the chorus but none of them seemed quite right. That's when BrayDee took the ball and ran with it, giving the chorus a new chord structure and melody and it was exactly what the song needed!

At that point we decided to collaborate on this video, and come to find out, Alexis has the voice of an angel! It's utterly gorgeous! And so she is singing lead, BrayDee is singing harmony and playing guitar, and I'm strumming my uke and just loving "Everything" about my talented friends!

Chords & Lyrics:

You’re my [Gm7] avocado toast on a [C] California morn
My [Gm7] luscious, sweet sor[C]bet
You’re my [Gm7] tall drink of water when I’m [C] dying of thirst
A [Gm7] moonlit sip of [C] rosé [D]

You’re my [F] seesaw partner - lift me [C] up when I’m down
A [G] sunny field where we play
Adore [F] seeing your face as our [C] merry goes round
You [G] capture my flag every da[D]ay

You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
to [Cadd9] me
[Gm7 C]
[Gm7 C]

I want [Gm7] nothing more than the [C] wind in our hair
As we [Gm7] cruise this sunset [C] drive
You [Gm7] rev me up, you’re the [C] spark to my plug
You [Gm7] make me feel a[C]live [D]

You’re my [F] night on the town, a [C] dance at the ball
Or a [G] Netflix and chill kinda vibe
You’re my [F] poetry reading at the [C] coffeehouse
A [G] stroll in your park feels ri[D]ight

You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
to [Cadd9]me
[Gm7 C]
[Gm7 C]

You’re a [Gm7] cool blue pool on a [C] hot summer day
A crackling [Gm7] fire on a chilly [C] night
You’re my [Gm7] earth, my wind, my [C] sun and my moon
You’re the [Gm7] world in which I de[C] [D]light

Our [F] life together is such [C] sweet symphony
In our [G] dance is where I belong
The [F] notes we play are in [C] grand harmony
A [G] life’s duet is our so[D]ong

You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
You mean [Em] ev [D]ery [A]thing
To [Cadd9] me [D]
