Rocket City
A song about Huntsville, AL, for the City Songs challenge. [more inside]
New York March
One more 1865 banjo tune for the city songs challenge trifecta! This is another Frank B. Converse composition. Fretless banjo and tambourine, a bit of reverb for extra stateliness.
Philadelphia Jig
Another 19th century banjo tune for the City Songs Challenge, this one from Frank B. Converse's New and Complete Method for Banjo With and Without A Master. [more inside]
Free Man In Paris
For the May/June/July Music Challenge, billiebee and I collaborated on a Joni Mitchell cover. [more inside]
A la Habana
An ode to Havana in a mongrelized "guagancó" rhythm. It's badly sung in Spanish, and awkwardly played using congas, bongos and a batá. I've included my original lyrics in Spanish and an English translation. [more inside]
Boston Jig
Getting in just under the wire for the May/June city song challenge, this is a short little banjo tune from Buckley's New Banjo Method of 1860. Fretless minstrel banjo, parlor guitar, bones and tambourine.
Jackson (Lucinda Williams Cover)
My entry for the May/June 'City Songs' challenge. [more inside]
On The Banks of Sacramento (wubmachine remix)
Whereupon we invite an algorithm to make mincemeat of a rather squalid song and out comes happy accidents. [more inside]
Chicago (Sufjan Stevens cover)
Felt inspired to throw together a cover of an old favorite for the May/June challenge. [more inside]
