Tyrants in Therapy

The Tyrants formed after a chance meeting by Michael J and Abbe Kanter in a Hollywood acting class. The tyranny began in local punk and new wave clubs with songs like “3 People Nude Below the Waist” and "In the Shadow of Hitler." But in 1986, they released "Too Tuff to Cry," an ultra sincere disco track that blew up into a club smash from East L.A. to Mexico City. TIT still was still unsatisfied. "We had evolved beyond Dance into strange new territory…even for us," says AbbeAbbe, the female Tyrant.
