{"product_id":"the-tammy-shine-ok-shine-ok-lp","title":"The Tammy Shine - Ok Shine Ok (LP)","description":"\u003ch1\u003eThe Tammy Shine Ok Shine Ok is the debut solo album of Tammy Ealom from legendary indiepop band Dressy Bessy, featuring the single Junk Mail.\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003cp\u003eOn February 20, 2026, Tammy Ealom, the snarling creative force behind Denver's legendary Dressy Bessy, presents her debut solo albumThe Tammy Shine, Ok Shine Ok, via Happy Happy Birthday To Me Records (HHBTM). This release marks a pivotal moment: for the first time in her three-decade career, Ealom has taken complete command--writing, performing, producing, and engineering the record entirely on her own.\u003cbr\u003eEalom's resilience was forged early. Born to young parents, her upbringing as a 'military brat' landed her in Hawaii, where she learned to literally fight to survive the rough social climate of high school. This tenacity would later serve her well in the male-dominated music industry. Her sonic DNA is equally eclectic, rooted in her Mod father's love for the British Invasion bands, her discovery of The McCoys, Michael Jackson, Prince, and later refined by her love of grunge in  bands like Nirvana and Hole. Her future husband and musical partner, John Hill (The Apples in stereo), also introduced her to more hard rock and the punk economy of The Ramones and Buzzcocks. \u003cbr\u003eTammy's songwriting career jumpstarted in 1995 with a gift of a guitar and a 4-track recorder; weeks later, she had ten original songs recorded. After twenty-five years of crafting Dressy Bessy's signature 'clutter-punk,' Ealom began to form a singular vision. Sparked by a liberating solo set at the 2017 Athens Popfest, Ok Shine Ok is the result of that freedom.\u003cbr\u003eThe album highlights Ealom's evolution from frontwoman to technical architect. Stripping away the democratic process of a band, she displays her prowess as a studio engineer, blending bubblegum hooks with DIY grit without an outside producer or band to  interpret her vision.\u003cbr\u003eTo support the release, The Tammy Shine will begin touring in February 2026 with bassist Mike King. Ok Shine Ok is a celebration, proving that after thirty years of making noise, Ealom might just be getting started.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e         \u003ch2\u003eMedia\u003c\/h2\u003e        \u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:px;\"\u003e   \u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"450\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" allow=\"autoplay\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/soundcloud%3Atracks%3A2215625513%3Fsecret_token%3Ds-gQc5LG8gGwU\u0026amp;color=%23ff5500\u0026amp;auto_play=false\u0026amp;hide_related=false\u0026amp;show_comments=true\u0026amp;show_user=true\u0026amp;show_reposts=false\u0026amp;show_teaser=true\u0026amp;visual=true\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc;line-break: anywhere;word-break: normal;overflow: hidden;white-space: nowrap;text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif;font-weight: 100;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/dressybessy\" title=\"dressybessy\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\"\u003edressybessy\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/dressybessy\/junk-mail\/s-gQc5LG8gGwU\" title=\"Junk Mail\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\"\u003eJunk Mail\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e  \u003c\/div\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eShaky Shaky\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBaby I'll B There\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eSo Very Little\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eJunk Mail\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eLove Letter\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eSpeed Date\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eNot Today\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBlue Jay\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003ePrizefight\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eTic Tac\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eAuto Pilot\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eLil Fences\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e HHBTM Records\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alternative\/Punk\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRun Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 41:11 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0       \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 02\/06\/26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 760137204367\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"HHBTM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47069046571257,"sku":"HHBTM238","price":20.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/4889\/files\/HHBTM238.jpg?v=1764349166","url":"https:\/\/mvdshop.com\/products\/the-tammy-shine-ok-shine-ok-lp","provider":"MVD Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
