"The result is a banquet of tasty, unconventional melodies and sometimes twisted lyrics set against a backdrop of electronic and acoustic sonic landscapes that transport the listener to an alternative musical world where Meade, with his multi-octave voice and unique songcrafting gifts, is considered a godfather."

Tyson Meade, the former frontman of Oklahoma alternative rock bands Chainsaw Kittens and Defenestration, brings his unique quirkiness to his third solo album Tomorrow in Progress. A major influence on the Smashing Pumpkins, Meade invited Pumpkins drummer Jimmy Chamberlin and bassist Nicole Fiorentino to join him along with other guests Derek Brown, the keyboardist of The Flaming Lips, as well as 16-year-old violin prodigy Haffijy, who inspired the album. As Meade tells it, Haffijy, who was a student at a Chinese boarding school where Meade worked, asked him about his days as a trash-glam frontman. "I played Haffijy some of my songs from my music days and he quickly wrote parts for them," Meade says. "Not only did he write parts, he played with such love and honesty that I was touched immeasurably. Birds chirped in some sort of Far East Disney way."
