A Carnival For The Ageless based on a variety of themes: phone numbers, fears, historical events, loss, the Beatles... The songs that emerged from those challenges inspired them to want to share with all of you. They have become a live performing and touring act. Yessian says, “The TMG live show is rich with brotherly rapport, humor, wellcrafted harmonies, captivating stories and fine musicianship, but first and foremost, we are about the songs.” In September, Jeff Kossack announced that he would be leaving the group and focusing on his own music.

Severin Browne performs solo, with guests to his First Friday show at Kulak’s Woodshed, and with Tall Men Group to packed house concerts and intimate listening rooms. His brilliant lyrics invite listeners into the songs while his solid melodies carry the story from one note to the next.
