Tumbledown (Mike Herrera)

[tuuexx]

Mike,i like this "new " band. I dont get out much,live in B.F.E.,Arkansas,moved here for San Luis Obispo,Ca.,10 yrs ago,and lost track of almost everything "cool".i avoided comps. for the first 5 yrs,so,yea,im out of touch,and now watch youTube.Im also a vet. of the punk rock scene .about 5 yrs ago ,i started playing a mesh of punk,fast blues,and blue-grass,not to be trendy,but ,because it just sort of happened.About 2 yrs ago,i got a banjo as a gift,and guess what,i can play it too.and fast.!

Dude Mike are you serious???? How many Psycho-Billy bands have come before Tumbledown? What about Social D? Uggggg Tiger Army? Dude so many countrified punk bands have come wayyyyy before you...

[Yahwehsninja]

the punk rock dude from mxpx spends most of his time talking about viral marketing and myspace? wtf is going on?

[skapunkero]

@Ericisgoodenough cuz sounds great, thats why who cares wich band they came from, travis barker just to be the drummer of the aquabats and blink 182 so what, "good music is good music and that should be enough for anybody" .-Brad Nowell-

hah what a "douche" hes way too conceded. I just came to watch this video cause someone told me what an idiot he made of himself.

[DocHelliday]

@JelloCup, idk how you see that at all...

Mike Herrera sounds like a slippery corporate douche bag now (especially after watching this interview). He's obviously more concerned with being popular than writing good music. Tumbledown sounds like bad MxPx leftovers on acoustic with some twang and a slight drawl. Plus, Mike's about a decade behind on the whole "young pop country" scene. He should stick to what he knows best: punk. I say "BOOOOO!!!!" to Tumbledown.

@sethoverdeer So I guess I would need to know your definition of a "corporate douche bag" in order to take your comment seriously. I would actually think his comment about doing it for the "right" reasons would speak more to the contrary (4:09). But even so, being an adult, I would hope that you could appreciate the concept of wanting to make a living doing something you love.

@sethoverdeer MxPx has not broken up man, if you like Punk listen to MxPx. But for those of us that dig Rockabilly/Country music Tumbldown is pretty bad ass!

[sickxboyx]

Tumbledown is absolutely amazing!! Rockabilly, Country, Indie Rock whatever you want to call it. The Music is down to earth, and I hope other people love it just as much as I do. Good Luck
