Songs 5-6 aren't released yet, as best as I can tell, and are all really good. Credit for @certola for helping ID the last song, which indeed is on a 7" release but is also on the band's Bandcamp: thetelephonenu...
Turns out I heard "Footsteps In The Corridor" back when they played at Four-Star in January, in what I was jokingly referring to as a Molina (3 bands / 4 songs / 15m each, 5 min between sets).
For more Telephone Numbers in their live element, here's a playlist of everything I've managed to scour on ye olde Tube: • The Telephone Numbers
If you are a fan of The Reds, Pinks, and Purples, you'll love this group as Thomas also plays guitar for Glenn D.'s project...the RP&P's frontperson gets a shout-out at 13:39 for helping out with guitar strap attachment duties for Morgan, who also plays in The Umbrellas and Kitchenettes, both of which are simply brilliant, bassist Charlie E. played in The Lovebirds and was in earlier incarnations of Kitchenettes and Cindy, and of course drummer Phil also plays for both Chime School AND Neutrals. All great humans and players. Simply wow.
David P.'s quite amazing Bay Area Bands Visio documents all this!

I had a handwritten attempt doing the same thing from about 6-7 years ago but it's a joke compared to this.
Here's his RU-vid channel...

It is criminally undersubscribed, so if you're here for local SF/Oakland band coverage and aren't subbed to him, you are really, really, REALLY missing out!
