the good but nothing special
The good but nothing special is the vehicle in which Brad McGoey will be releasing his original music and art. This is an evolution from the very confusing stage name “Chad McCoy”, which rhymes with his given name and was thought to be clever and funny by enough people (about 3) that Brad released two E.P.’s and went on two tours and even went on breakfast television under this confusing fake name. From here on forward Brad will be releasing his original music and producing events under the name “the good but nothing special”, which is kind of a like a band name but there isn’t always a band, just a loose smattering of musicians and ideas that occasional produces cool things. Hope that clears it up.
Music!
A ripper of a little E.P, 10 minutes of energy. Ideal for cranking while biking down the biggest hill in town, or to play continuously while building a shelter to camp in for the season.
