The Odd Lamb is seperate from "neenu naanu" and "Jonathan Atchley" because it's a different animal. It's much more about the producing and mixing of the all the instruments/sounds/concepts. It's pretty all over the place. Many instruments and sounds - lot's of mixed up styles. Funny - cynical - overly clever - ambitious - ambiguous - surprising - creative - and as deep as you want to go with it.
It's a much fulle/cleaner sound. It's more experimental and takes a lot more time to make. It has a similar feel to other home studio bands - neoDIY - we got the technology now to sound good for cheap!
It's like my older larger visual art - "bigger" ideas/more prefessional - more time spent - VS my new drawings that are small and fast - like my self titled music.

Hi - Why do I do what I do?
I do all this art/music stuff because I just have to - because that's how I was made I guess. It's my gift and/or plague to the world. It's my salvation - in the worldliest way. For better or worse it's "yes" to an inner voice that I don't understand much at all...a voice that I can't control. It comes from where my actions come from - before thinking (brain sometimes catches up later)...
From light hearted/funny to the scariest things - my art is like what effects/inspires me the most - from T.V. commercials all the way to God/stories of faith in the Bible. I sing that song...
As the artist - I say what others don't know how to say...just doing my small and necessary part. I think this builds community like other peoples gifts do. I hope to learn how to do this better.
I'm just a witness (not a teacher) of what I know to be true - what I know from living out my own life under the sun.
My passion in life/art is purley to reflect/move towards/be in relationship with absolute truth - at all costs. To somehow help others in their own race. To get it to those who get it. To play my part no matter how small,weird,evil,quiet,IMPOSSIBLE!....etc.
Besides all that - a lot of times I like to just be funny and make jokes.
