Loves Deep Mineshaft
Loves Deep Mineshaft is an odd little song recorded in a couple of hours on Thursday afternoon. I make the music and Ron makes the words. I've been playing music for a long time in bands and solo and Ron has been getting his writing published and doing spoken word spots at clubs in New York for years. This is the result of glueing his words and his harmonica to my playing everything else. It comes out a little bit like the last song of the night at David Lynch's favourite bar and I'd really like to know whether other people think it's any good. I tend to like stuff that sounds screwed up like this but I'm not sure anyone else does.
All My Hearts (Are Belong To You)
A tribute to classic country music. [more inside]
What Happens in Vegas (Ends-up on the Internet)
Pretty much self-explanatory, I think.
No Going Back
This is not the happiest song I've ever written. [more inside]
Cave Creek Jail
A new song I'm working on for an EP I plan on recording this year. Roughly (super roughly!) recorded - I need some opinions! [more inside]
On the Count of Three
I wrote this song last week and started playing with it this weekend. I'm excited about its potential, but I would looove love love some feedback. [more inside]
Live Like You Were Dyin'
A slightly uptempo cover of Tim McGraw's hit, recorded sometime in late 2004. [more inside]
Oh, Johanna
Bluesy folksy track, an ode to Johanna [more inside]
Rounds
A song about a night out on the town [more inside]
Breaking the Rules (Rough Cut)
Country/jazz. acapella. An open letter to Amy Winehouse. Super Mario Galaxy. [more inside]
King of the Road
Tape really does sound better. And good mics, preamps, compressors, consoles... [more inside]
I Love Tea Parties on the Ceiling
An old song based on this scene from Mary Poppins that I told melissa may I'd post a long time ago. [more inside]
star shapes
This is a song i've been trying to put together for a year or two now. It uses my usual punk + x formula, where here, x = rawhide. The second half is big, noisy, and was tons of fun to make. I"m kinda fond of the lyrics Hope you enjoy. lyrics inside [more inside]
Daddy Don't Live Here
An obligatory country tear-jerker. [more inside]
You Caught My Eye
Another country song about one of those nights you wish you could take back.
Paternity Test
This is a country song about that painful waiting game. Does it belong to me?
Eggdrop
First post, so I'll start with something short and old. This one is sort of bouncy. Country/Dixieland style. Guitar, bass, and drums. No vocals. [more inside]
Lonesome Drinkin' Days
Hank Plank and the 2x4s, doing what we do best: a drinking song.
lost my beer
a true story song. at least, parts of it are true. hank plank and the 2x4s, circa 2000.
Picture of You
This is a song about missing someone when they are gone.
rocket to venus
Hank Plank and the 2x4s. We've been a band for over a decade, which is amazing to us. this is a song about space exploration.
Have a Good Time
A waltz. From our album Planks of Grass, which is split between NYC and PDX songs, this one is NYC.
Living Ain't Worth Dying For
We were going for a John Cougar Mellencamp, Americana, country-rock thing. We have no interest in having a message, hence the stupid words. And we think vague singing about "Uncle Sam", "the war", "the factory", etc., is funny.
Needs
This is the first song I have ever written, on a dare for my husband's alt-country band. They liked it enough to record it. The handclaps make me laugh.
Tecumseh Valley
Townes Van Zandt was a talented man who wrote beautiful songs. I own some guitars and recording equipment and have a lot of spare time. Here I embarrass myself and denigrate Van Zandt's legacy by attempting to cover him. But I did add a string arrangement!
Going To Abilene
I am re-uploading this song. I wrote it a while back and recorded last weekend. I'm just learning to record, so the guitars are a little quiet. Tips would be very welcome! I'm stoked I get to re-post, since I spelled "Abilene" wrong last time.
Room at the End of the Hall
I had this vague melody a year or so ago, and at the time it was starting to become a song about riding my bike at night, drunk. I stuck it on the backburner until after I saw that Johnny Cash bio-pic, where they sing that June Carter duet "Time's a Wastin'" together, (which they never did in real life.) So then I got this idea to write a nice country duet like that, but instead of it being all happy and fresh-new-relationship-let's-consummate-it kinda thing, I wanted it to be about people that hated each other intensely. People that were sick and tired of seeing each other everyday for years and years. Then, for an added twist, I forced my lovely wife to sing the harmony part. We actually do like each other, though.
Score
The heart is a lonely trucker
Everybody Lies a Little
This is a song by Hank Plank and the 2x4s, a band for which I sing, play guitar and write songs (like this one). It is a country band, and this is a country song. We have been a band for over 10 years now. Three of our members have a total of two children. This song is about infidelity and there is a pun involved.
Center of Gravity
More music from Chris Knott. He plays everything on this. I helped clean up the mix.
Abraham Holmes
More low quality, drunken Bluegrass with The Failsworth Pilgrims. Recorded the same night we recorded Diamond Joe - only slightly more sober. We always opened our shows with this one because it lends itself to soundchecking so well. Another rough mix, although we did go back later (drunker) and add the super-camp backing vocals
Meet Me Tonight At The Landfill
A big pop-y, jangly duet for the end of line.
Your Darlin Ain't Done Sh*t Today
Bringing the honkytonk to MeFi.
Picking Black Raspberries
Came up with the main theme while picking black raspberries (also known as blackcaps) on my landlord's property, and finished composing it while suffering from a subsequent bout of poison ivy-induced rash. All tracks recorded at once, normalized but unmixed since my computer lacks adequate power for multi-track recording.
Drunken Brawl
by Felonious Bosch -- “Never got drunk, as you can see, I'm (hic) perfectly sober...”
I've got something
Recorded 7 or so years ago with a friend. It's missing something in the middle, but I like the way it disintegrates towards the end. I've no idea what genre it is, but I guess it shows influence from all the country/folk/lofi music I listen to.
Diamond Joe
Low quality stomping country music recorded drunk and presented here in it's straight-from-the-desk unmixed format. Came out pretty good. Nice rattly drums.
