[ClickPress, Wed Jan 24 2007] Having trouble figuring out what music to play in the background as you bang out that brief? Looking for some songs to psych you up on the way to court? The Billable Hour Company has the answer to these interrogatories in its new music store featuring CDs by and for members of the legal profession.

The Bar & Grill Singers are a group of practicing attorneys in Austin, Texas. On their three CDs—A Time to Grill, Grilling Me Softly and Licensed to Grill—they blend layered vocal harmonies with topics ranging from lifetime judicial appointments (“Appointed Forever”) to somnambulant factfinders (“The Jury Sleeps Upright”).

West Virginia lawyer Bob Noone—along with with his group, The Well Hung Jury—covers a lot of ground on his two featured albums, Wingtips Optional and Second Helping of Chicken Suit for the Lawyer’s Soul, tackling everything from legal education (“Fifty Ways to Get Through Law School”) to lawyer advertising (“Bring Your Case Here to Me”) and more.

Both groups perform in a wide range of musical styles, from swing (Noone’s “Lawsuit Riot”) to 80’s pop (Bar & Grill’s “I’m Billing Time”), R&B (Noone’s “My Will”) to do-wop (Bar & Grill’s “Mr. Foreman”).

“We chose these groups to inagurate our musical offerings because their songs are simply hilarious,” said Lisa Solomon, partner in The Billable Hour Company. Mark Solomon—a lawyer and actively performing musician himself—also noted the albums’ tight arrangements and high production values.

Song samples are available to journalists at www.TheBillableHour.com/billablehouraudiosamples.php. Bloggers and writers for online legal publications are invited to embed these samples on their blogs or websites.

The CDs are available for $14.95 each at the company’s website, www.TheBillableHour.com.

The Billable Hour Company sells humorous gifts and greeting cards especially for lawyers, law students and legal professionals. Gift items include timepieces featuring dials marked in six-minute increments—the same way many lawyers bill their time.
