We kicked off our last #concert with a promise: We don’t use #AI to create our #songs. We then went on to have an extreme crisis of confidence while making that proclamation… Find out if we decide to maintain our #artisticintegrity when you watch the full song on YouTube, just search “two little letters AI song” or something like that, the machines will figure it out. “Two Little Letters (The A.I. Song)” Music by Brett Ryback (@btryback ) Lyrics by Jeff Luppino-Esposito (@jeffwriteslyrics ) @gregsadlerdrums on drums 🥁 @theticketstub on bass 🎸 @btryback on keys 🎹 @frontfoot & @livvmalynn on camera 🎥

Dylan Saunders and Lana McKissack brought the POWER on this one. Full recording on YouTube. “In the Dark With Him” originally appeared in episode 4 of our docu-style #musical #podcast “In Strange Woods,” created by Jeff Luppino-Esposito, Brett Ryback, and Matt Sav. After you listen to Dylan and Lana’s take on this number, head over to your music streaming platform of choice to listen to Brett Ryback and Tony winner Beth Leavel sing it on the pod or the cast album. Then, after that, try going outside and getting off your phone for once. Ever think of that? Wow. Piano: @btryback Drums: @gregsadlerdrums Bass: @theticketstub Camera: @frontfoot @livvmalynn

As we head off to @namt_org next week (!!), it seemed like a good time to figure out what’s going on in the music of “Love Is Dead.” So here’s the first installment of a series where lyricist @jeffluppinoesposito ambushes composer @btryback with the big questions like “so why it sound like this?” And “can you please slow down and clarify what ‘tertiary’ means, bro?” Thanks to @thejennap for beautifully singing this song at our recent concert (you can find her full performance of it on YouTube if you search “Jenna Pastuszek - How to Sell Love”) — I find it helps to have heard the 3-minute song at least once before listening to the 3-minute breakdown of the first 10 seconds of the song. #newmusicals #musical #musicaltheatre #musicaltheatre #romcom #songwriter

You know that funny-sad song in a #musical comedy where the character reveals (often unknowingly) what they’ve really been feeling? Well that’s this song in our show! Jordan writes ads for a dating app, and as she’s trying to take some time for herself over a long weekend, she keeps getting texts from her co-workers who need her help. She relents and sends this message to them about how to write the perfect ad copy for the app. “How to Sell Love” from @loveisdead.musical Music by @btryback Lyrics by @jeffluppinoesposito Our #ghost #romcom musical is coming to the @namt_org New Works Festival this Oct 23 + 24, so if you’re in the industry in NYC, come check it out! And if you’re not, then please call your local theater artistic director and demand that they include our show in their next season.
