Zen Virtual Piano에서 Parry Gripp의 피아노 악보를 찾아보세요. Asked how the online songs began, Gripp says that after Nerf Herder ended around 2003 he went back to working at his family's orchid nursery in Santa Barbara, because making a living riding around in a van is hard. During those years he was goofing around, writing short songs and putting them on YouTube. A musician back at the family nursery writing short songs for fun suggests that the web songs began as a pastime between jobs and not as a planned second career, at least as he tells it, and that the nursery gave him a steady base to experiment from. Parry Pillsbury Gripp was born on 22 September 1967, and he enrolled in the College of Creative Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Nerf Herder began in Santa Barbara, where, he says, the scene was good and being in a band was simply what everybody did. Major radio stations picked up an independent release, which brought a major-label contract and then five or six years of touring and recording. A band from a town where everyone was in a band suggests an environment that made starting out feel ordinary, and the jokey lyrics may have grown naturally from that casual, friendly setting. One song first appeared on New Grounds, a flash animation site, and when it took off he felt inspired to write more goofy songs of that kind. He settled on a song a week with a YouTube video for each, which let him build up hundreds of songs that might interest people. It was totally organic, he says: he did not know what he was doing and read nothing about tactics for becoming popular, and just tried to make things that were funny to him. The best songs, he says, arrive whole when you wake up; Do You Like Waffles, which he credits with starting things for him, took thirty minutes including the recording. A weekly deadline and a habit of following what amused him hint at a method where quantity and speed gave him room to find the songs that worked. His 2005 solo album For Those About to Shop, We Salute You is a 51-track concept record of fake jingles, each imitating a different musical style as a product commercial. His recent work for the Disney show The 7D, he says, had brought an Emmy for one of its songs, a thrill for him. When hired to write a song, he says, there is an initial terror in wondering whether you can come up with something they will like, since a creative person knows that sometimes you cannot. Commercial parodies and a song for a children's television show suggest a songwriter who moves comfortably between commissions and play, treating both as chances to be funny.
