TagYerit currently has 3 CDs recorded and available. ... Heavy Construction, Tubeman and
Gazing Globe ...

In the 1990s, songwriters Rich & Flo Newman decided to add "bandmates" to their other life shared adventures. Flo who had always played her acoustic Guild decided to go electric, so with the help of luthier William Cumpiano, she carved her "Rabbitcaster" guitar.
In 1995/1996 as TagYerit, they recorded their first CD "Heavy Construction" Through the then new WWW, they were successful in getting HC out to listeners on 6 continents. Never did find anyone on the Antarctic looking for tunes. Among the highlights of that release was getting on Guitar Player's Editor's Picks List for 1996, where Editor Richard Johnston wrote, "full of the pure joy of words and music". In 2006, their song Subway Surfing was reworked and rapped over by Hiphop artists Rakim and Talib Kweli as the Getting Up Anthem, for the theme song of Marc Ecko & Atari's Getting Up video game. (which also won MTV's best video game soundtrack.)

They also released Tubeman CD (1999) to critical acclaim and Gazing Globe (2006) is on "limited" release.

In October of 2006 they figured out how to combine their lifelong passion of pumpkin carving
with their music by creating a number of slideshow videos on Youtube

	Deranged Song about a cowgirl who has gotten a bit twisted from love lost. It's not clear if she has a dark sense of humor, a goth cowgirl or if she's gone over the deep end (i.e. Delta Dawn). The Descant (counter lyric) was an old unfinished song that worked perfectly in opposition to the Deranged cowgirl theme. An original spin of Stephen Foster's "Home on The Range".		Folk/Acoustic Rock/Americana
	Subway Surfing About riding inside the subway cars without using straps for support. Written before teens started foolishly started doing this atop rail cars. That's just plain crazy. Unfortunately, there have been many deaths from this stunt.		Alternative Pop Rock
