Paper Package

Paper Package is a Se7en South lullaby featuring Kevin McGroarty on vocals. This 22nd track on Se7en South Alblumo Duo CD allows the listener to reach its own conclusion on this paper package...could it be a brown package image, making a trip to the new england winter with images of clipart of crowds of people? Hmmmm!

Almighty

Almighty is another remix off the first alblum of Se7en South Alblumo Uno. It has nothing to do with the save my soul african movie beyonce. Rather, the vocals of Kevin McGroarty ask to save my soul and spare me from the devil's gold. It's a time of reflection within...my soul finds rest in you..."you" can be whatever spiritual entity one wants...this song provides the words of spiritual encouragement and devine heart spirital healing. Give a listen to soothing sounds on the 21st track of Se7en South Alblumo Duo.

Your Photograph

This solo by James Frushon on the ivory keys for Your Photograph, the 20th track on Se7en South Alblumo Duo CD appeals to all audiences. One might think, since Jimmy has migrated south, it would be a more a hallelujah chorus and piano solo. But it is not..rather the listener might think that the dial landed on a mid-afternoon PBS station. It is easy-listening, soothing piano music which will take the listener's mind on a memorable photographic trip of a lifetime. So, grab a drink of your choice, sit back, relax and allow your mind to wander down the path of lifetime memories instead of real photographs of ghosts. Whatever your online purchase preference...go to cdbaby.com...purchase the new Seven South CD and you determine your values, beliefs and preferences in music. You may be amazed at your paw preference.

Queen Nine

The British are coming, the British are coming!!! The vocals of Kevin McGroarty on the 19th track of Se7en South Alblumo Duo CD provides a history lesson, with a twist, of the dexter British Invasion subtitle. Queen Mary of Scots biography provides a tale of Queen Mary of England who cruised on a Queen Mary haunted ship and spoke of ghosts aboard the Queen Mary and how Queen Mary can make frozen lemonade. The boys in the band openly admit they tried to sound like "George Martin"...but think it's an excellent rip. Have a listen...you will be pleasantly surprised.

Tiger Steal Jeep

Tiger Steal Jeep, the 17th track of Se7en South Alblumo Duo CD, is an instrumental tune. The melody allows you to imagine yourself on an african safari trip where good tigers go wrong. The misguided tiger often finds itself under the hood of a willys jeep station 4x4 wagon...and after giving a few twists to wires that spark a connection, he sets off on a wild joy ride into the jungled darkness. Unable to control the wheel with gaint paws, the hellish terrain ride ends with the jeep coasting out of gas and his majesic profile is frozen looking over Lion Mountain.

Wyoming - a Small PA Town

Kyle Hiedacavage's awesome violin playing is featured again on the 16th track of Se7en South Alblumo Duo CD. James Frushon's raspy voice gives a glimpse of a good ole' boys days in the Valley with a Heart thru the beer-garden eyes of a dude with dusty crows feet who returns after the 1972 Agnes Flood. Looking at a Susquehanna River map you will find that the Borough of Wyoming (known for the Wyoming Massacre) is located halfway between Pittston, the tomato capital of the world, and Wilkes-Barre, hometown of Congressman Dan Flood, known for his handlebar moustache

Judy Zee

Judy Zee, the 15th track of Se7en South Alblumo Duo CD, can best be described as roll up a pack of smokes in your white tee shirt sleeve and hang by the bar juke box to ask the question who wanted the violin? This tune is not an ordinary violin playing basics by Kyle Hiedacavage. Kevin's immpecable playing makes me wonder how soon he will be a violinist figurine.

You Like/I Do

The lyrics of the 14th track of Se7en South Alblumo Duo has you thinking that Kevin McGroarty is swooning over a lost love; when, in fact, it is a love story...a dog love story. It has all the dog antics from sharing pancakes in the morning to burying bones in the backyard. Love match charts would classify it as a classic innocent love which gives merit to the saying love me love my dog pewter.

Route 81

Se7en South 's eleventh track, Route 81, on their Alblumo Duo CD is an humorous "road trip". Kevin McGroarty's vocals take the listner for a tongue-in-cheek ride on the famous north/south Pennsylvania Interstate. Use your travel map for interstate highways and start in receiving a massage, Great Bend, PA, then travelling thru a town known for the big Scranton face lift, to a town known for bus trips Wilkes-Barre, PA or for eyeglasses Wilkes-Barre and continuing south to Hazletown where the most asked question is why illegal immigrants come to America? Continuing on and putting the pedal to the metal will take you to Harrisburg, the capital of PA and soon to exit the state but not before asking the name of the President who created the interstate highway.

Parents Beware Of Online Predators

Parents, beware of online predators is the message that northeastern pensylvania studio band Seven South is sending in tribute to the Megan Meier tragedy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megan_Meier_suicide_controversy
http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Story?id=3882520

The public service announcement created with the help of Maryann Hovan and guitarist George Stuscavage's daughter is featured on the band's Alblumo Duo and serves as a warning for all parents to wake up to the real danges waiting to snatch our children from the safety of their homes.

It is not the internet that is bad. The internet is just technology, it is just a tool. It is the lack of social responsibility that allows this technology to be used for harmful intent.

In an effort to focus attention on this growing problem and shine the light on child predators everywhere we must be aggressive in getting the word out in our schools, communities and even in our own families.

Intellectual Property Profit Designated For Sierra Leone Charities

The song Sierra Leone written by Se7en South member Kevin McGroarty focuses on the problems in Sierra Leone, South Africa caused by the Sierra Leone civil war and the warlord's fight to gain control of the diamond wealth in order to fund their paramilitary operations. Sierra Leone (lion mountain) is a beautiful country rich in mineralizations such as diamonds, titanium and uranium but it's people remain impoverished and enslaved. Young girls and boys are enslaved by these warlords. Women and young girls are forced to become Sierra Leone's prostitues as well as child soldiers.
And as actor Leonardo Dicaprio brought the situation in Sierra Leone centerstage in his movie "Blood Diamond" and focused the eyes of the world on the "conflict diamond" trade. The band Se7en South has designated that 100% of the proceeds of their song "Sierra Leone" be used to fund chaity efforts in rebuilding the area and sponsoring aid.
When asked in a recent radio interview, "What does it mean to be socially responsible?" Kevin McGroarty replied "I imagine, the best way to describe it is to take a grass roots efforts on every issue you are confronted with. An elder walking into an establishment deserves a door to be held open for them. A waitress or waiter on their feet all day deserves 17% of the bill. An Amber Alert where a child is in peril deserves everyone to take 30 minutes (an equivelent of two smoke breaks) to pervasively study their environment, community or traffic activity. It's not the single drop of rain that bears responsibilty for the flood, but collectively, is where its true power thrives."
It is obvious that the band Se7en South is part of a growing social consciousness sweeping America and unafraid to voice their opinions and lend a hand.

White Out

The vocals by Kevin McGroarty on the 12th track of Se7en South Alblumo Duo CD, White Out, just makes you want to white out stains on the worse laundry management jobs. This is a longer version of the song from Se7en South Alblumo Uno CD. It is an ideal melody for doing laundry so pack up your commercial laundry bag with dirty clothes, including young girls white socks, grab your laundry soap equipment and head to the nearest laundromat. Rest awhile on the laundromat chairs because laundry day will never be the same.

I'm Falling - Public Service Announcement

The 11th track on Se7en South Alblumo Duo is a safety public service announcement. The public service announcement ideas are for concerned parents about the safety of what happens to children online.

Streets of Belfast

If you like the sounds of an Ol' Irish harp and crickets chirping in the night air, then the Streets of Belfast, the 10th track on Se7en South Alblumo Duo CD, is for you. This Irish waltz is about a peaceful place that once wasn't so. Vocals by Kevin McGroarty will have you reminiscing about one of your flights from belfast international to las palmas, where you reviewed your online belfast street map to find a countryside as uninhabited as inner peace alaska.

Champagne

Grab one of your cheap champagne flutes and fill it with a mimosa champagne drink...put your feet up and listen to Champagne, the 9th track on Se7en South CD Alblumo Duo. It is a segway to the softer side of the album with a voice over by Ethan Robinson, a local mega radio talent of KRZ fame.

Crooked River a/k/a Susquehanna River

One of the local Susquehanna River facts was the groundwork for Crooked River, which is the 8th track on the Se7en South CD entitled Alblumo Duo. When visiting the lake hubbard boat rental, take the crooked river dinner train to the crooked river resort. It is there a legend is told of a Pittston risk-taking-teen and his escapades of walking some distance and then use the huge icebergs as a floating taxi. Depending on the Susquehanna River stages and which Susquehanna River tributaries he was near, the susquehanna monuments of why ice floats and how kids make a raft was tested by his use of huge floating ice pieces to get himself home.

Ticy's Restaurant and Pizza Shop

The 7th track on Se7en South Alblumo Duo CD is an instrumental tribute with a funky little beat to a landmark restaurant and hometown pizza shop called Ticy's, which may have featured 1162 lincoln pizza ovens. They also had plans for outdoor pizza oven and portable wood pizza oven for an entry in the pizza box solar oven science fair.

Dapper Dan and his handlebar moustache

Congressman Dan Flood was the inspiration for the sixth track on Se7en South new CD. Vocals by Kevin McGroarty are done as a political tribute to one of Pennsylvania's most flayboyant congressman known for his recovery work during the Agnes Flood. You would not soon forget the victorian man with moustache. He was everything a silent hill 4 hometown politician could be. With one of the most remarkable men's moustache styles...handlebar to be exact. He had many a hometown buffet coupon in a canvas handlebar bag for beard or moustache combs, or booklets on how to trim a moustache or which is the best moustache trimmer. Good ole' Dapper Dan!

Honestly, It wasn't planned...

Wilkes-Barre, PA.

It started of like every other
cellular telephone call with one exception, this
one had been one year in the making. Nick "the Captain"
Prokopchak had landed in Philadelphia Saturday afternoon
and was setting a course from India to his home in Northeast
Pennsylvania. He called Kevin McGroarty and invited him to
a local pub to share a drink. After all these two original
members of SE7EN SOUTH had not been together since the
release of the first album : Alblumo Uno, in March of 2006.
Nick said some friends were playing as an acoustic duo at the
bar, and he was eager to see them. McGroarty agreed, but said
it would be late when he could attend. Later that evening
McGroarty received a voice mail from SE7EN SOUTH guitarist
George Stuscavage, that George was in a crowded pub and thinks he
sees Nick "The Captain" on stage playing congas with an guitar
duo who just happen to be (studio bassist on Alblumo Uno Dave
Cupano) and area guitar legend Big "Daddy Dex". Around 11:30
McGroarty arrives and four of the ,Jane Adonizio from the first album
are together in over a year and a half. During the music intermission,
someone had dropped a few quarters in the jukebox and selected
"Jane Adonizio" off the first album, and the four stood looking
at each other as to who was the culprit, turned out to be just one
of those strange dynamics that happens. Drinks, and toasts were
shared and a few short stories, including the upcoming schedule
for Nick "The Captain" who is landing in Bagdad some time in February.
The evening ended on a musical first Guitar George joined the band
for a curtain call of "Tush" by ZZTop. (Only George doesn't know the
words...again . :)

Straight Jacket Blues

This theme song for the Se7en South Band is also the fifth featured song on their Alblumo Duo CD. The vocals of Kevin McGroarty allow us to travel, with a humorous roundabout, to odd and strange places to stay, e.g. the psychiatric unit of a local hospital. The subject of the song, which can be girls in straight jackets or people in straight jackets, find they are all tied up with no where to go...except in their head. Communication in psychiatric hospitals seems like a foreign language on holidays to strange places.

Tomato Whoopie at the green tomato festival juliette

Kevin McGroarty's parady of loving the tomato growing process on Se7en South's Alblumo Duo CD has, by far, the best tomatoes growing tips. From a little rain, a little earth, a little seed, a sunshine burst all of which can lead to the best growing fall tomatoes, especially russian red tomatoes. It doesn't matter if the harvest is from an outdoor tomato garden, indoor tomato garden or container growing tomatoes, the fresh and sweet tomatoes can be used to make homemade tomato soup, used in whoopie pie recipes or made into homemade sauce for the big tomato pizza co. I can only say it's...just like magic on a vine!

Kentucky Diva who likes Moonshine

Se7en South Alblumo Duo features vocals by Kevin McGroarty and some mean violin playin' by Kyle Hiedacavage on the third track entitled Kentucky Diva, a goddess-like woman who likes the home-finger-lickin goodness of kentucky moonshine. The seven herbs and spices is very similar to those used in kentucky fried chicken that is eaten by many a vistor to kentucky state parks. The endangered species in kentucky learn to make moonshine at an early age using grandpa's easy moonshine recipe especially his favorite moonshine mash recipe. Many of the university of kentucky cheerleaders and the university of kentucky football team have many stories of wild off campus moonshine parties. For proof of the good times just visit the somerset kentucky gallery.

Gas Pumping Girl

Gas Pumping Girl is the second song on the Alblumo Duo of the Se7en South band and was brought out of the Se7en South archives originally recorded in 1997. When listening to the vocals delivered by Kevin McGroarty, many people would probably envision a photo of naked girl at chevron gas station pumping gas; when, in fact, it is actually a story of a motorcyclist who watches from his rear view mirror the filling station vanish where his heart has stayed swooning over an angel pumping gas (female mechanic) or generally, people pumping gas. Not to be confused with female gas pedal pumping or plain ole gas pedal pumping. However, the motorcyclist has received many tips on pumping gas, the most important of which is the danger pumping gas with cell phone.

Visit Coconut Island with Tropical Sunsets

The first cut of the Se7en South CD is Coconut Island and it rolls like a travel agency ready for a tropical cruise. Jim Frushon suggests that the song on a Coconut Island is best used for conga lines around the office, played at a maximum volume or try it on a rainy day.

You will find that the music cd case covers quite a unique cd baby. You can picture tropical island photos from the air, as well as visualize a tropical island sunset, all while eating a cheeseburger in paradise. Or maybe you are more into searching buried treasure maps in library or while sitting under coconut trees, looking through buried treasure maps for buried treasure on Florida's west coast. No matter what suits you, this song will have you humming along in no time.
