Mostly Parry Gripp but sometimes and other cute cute cute cute cute stuff
Parry Gripp (born September 22, 1967)is a singer-songwriter as well as lead vocalist and guitarist for the punk pop band Nerf Herder.
As a songwriter, Gripp is best known for fake jingles, as in his 2005 solo album For Those About to Shop, We Salute You - a 51-track concept album mimicking various musical styles as product commercials. While it does not have one single concept, it goes through many various concept suites, such as trucks, beer, and insomnia. He also maintains a song-of-the-week website and a YouTube channel on which he creates soundtracks to internet memes as well as music videos for his own novelty songs, with titles including "Do You Like Waffles?", "Sandwich", "I'm Hungry", "Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom Nom","om nom nom", "Last Train to Awesome Town", "Surfin' Taco", "Hip Hip Hoo-Raisin", "Hamster on a Piano (Eating Popcorn)" and "Baby Monkey (Going Backwards On A Pig)".
Gripp also joined forces with MC Lars to perform some of the vocals, including the chorus, to 'Guitar Hero Hero (Beating Guitar Hero Doesn't Make You Slash)' a song commenting on the notion that video games like Guitar Hero take kids away from playing in bands and actually learning their instruments.
Along with faux jingles, Gripp also creates some real advertising music, such as Beatles-inspired tunes promoting the Wawa Food Markets' Breakfast Hoagiefest, and songs for the Hallmark Cards e-characters hoops&yoyo.
On July 9, 2009 Parry Gripp debuted a new song called "The Girl at the Video Game Store" for the 1000th episode of the G4 TV program Attack of the Show!. The video features the show's hosts Olivia Munn as the titular character and Kevin Pereira on drums.
Gripp introduced a 1:12-long song called "Spaghetti Cat (I Weep For You)", which he uploaded on November 30, 2008. The video has compiled over 1 million views on YouTube.
Aside from his music, Gripp is the co-owner (with his sister) of the Santa Barbara Orchid Estate, which was founded by his father.
