Album Notes

In 1971, three brothers: John, Ken and Larry Tomsick, with Alan Pirnat (lead vocal) and John Zemaitis (drums) formed the band 'Tarsier'.

In the mid to late 1970's, we played around Cleveland, Ohio as 'Missing Persons', the title of a song we wrote. (a name we used before the pop '80s band with the same name surfaced). In 1980, Greg Davidson joined on drums. We played local clubs including the Cleveland Agora, doing all originals, but decided to focus on writing and recording.

The first original we recorded was 'Dimension of Now' in 1974. Over the next 15 years (into the late 1980's) we recorded nearly 50 songs and demos at various studios around Cleveland. None of the music was ever released. A 2nd CD Compilation by Tomsix will be forthcoming on CD Baby.

'Soundbones' is a 14-song CD of originals written and recorded from 1974-79. Included is a 6-page booklet with the lyrics. There were only 250 total CD's originally pressed and shrink-wrapped, and will probably not be re-issued when these are gone. Thanks for listening. - Ken Tomsick
