New York musician John Brodeur, in honor of his friends in Phantogram making their television debut on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon,” has made his cover of Phantogram’s “Mouthful of Diamonds” available as a free download HERE. On April 5th, Brodeur will release Tiger Pop Ten, a two-CD set featuring a newly recorded version of his critically praised 2001 pop album Tiger Pop. A two-month tour in support of the release will begin later this month.
The new Tiger Pop Ten will be coupled with a 10th-anniversary reissue of the original disc. Tiger Pop’s pop smarts and try-anything production style caught the notice of many critics when it was originally released and earned Brodeur his place on stage with artists such as Fountains of Wayne, They Might Be Giants, Rooney, and Freedy Johnston among others.
Brodeur adds an additional song, “Masterpiece,” to open Tiger Pop Ten, a tune written just as the original album was completed. The album was mixed and mastered by former Kamikaze Hearts member, Troy Pohl.
“Tiger Pop Ten is a celebration of the relationships that went into it – something we can all share as a reminder of our time together,” Brodeur says of the collaborative nature of the new version. “Without road maps – the original Tiger Pop sessions were quite carefully plotted – the songs found their own identities. They’re still part of my DNA, but they’ve also become their own beings.”
