I was listening to Jack’s Mannequin new cd online on Zune (or something like that Zume? maybe) yesterday and started reading some bio which led to Something Corporate bio and William Tell was listed as a band member and I wondered if this could be the same William Tell that sings the song, “Just for You” which is absolutely lovely. I never knew much about him and I try not to know much about the actual band and members so nothing disturbs the music, so I had no clue if he was the same guy until just a few minutes ago. Thanks to today’s technology I figured it out in about a minute (and no, there is nothing else more important that I should be doing).

Tell was in the band for three years and then left to pursue a solo career. The song “Just for You” appears on his debut solo album, You Can Hold Me Down (#9 – figures, it’s so a No.9 song), released in 2007. Apparently, one of the songs deals with him leaving the band and former band members helped him record a few songs. I have no idea though because I haven’t listened to any of his other songs, but I think I will just to see how different they are from SoCo. I’ve listened to them since I was 19 and I think that’s the first time I’ve ever referred to them as “SoCo”
