Artsy-fartsy cartoon funk from the debut Buggy Jive Mixtape.
THE BUGGY JIVE HOUSE CONCERT is just that: a video document of a short set of Mr Jive’s trademark solo-electric soul rock songs, filmed in his home studio in front of a small audience of some of his oldest and dearest friends.
“Stole My Stealing from Eliot” is a new music video from soul rocker BUGGY JIVE about art, poetry, T.S. Eliot - and Bey and Jay. It was shot on-location in the following unreal cities: London, Paris and Albany. All stuff by Buggy Jive. Except the stuff stolen from T.S. Eliot.
"And he hangs a moon above a one-man band." This is Buggy’s take on "The Jungle Line," Joni Mitchell's wild little ditty about the, ahem, white gaze of kooky primitivist painter, tax man and jungle fetishist Henri Rousseau.
"How to Write 'Another Song About the Moon'" is a new, short film about building a song around a quasi-improvised vocal track. For Caroline and Greg.

Do you remember the first time you heard a favorite record? This is a funky recounting of the first time reclusive soul rock singer-songwriter Buggy Jive heard Joni Mitchell's "Blue" album.
An existential 5/4 funk ditty from the Buggy Jive EP “I Don’t Understand How the World Works”.
This is a live performance of "Tiptoes," from the album "You Won't Like the Answer." Acoustic jive, live and outside. (With apologies to the neighbors.)
