Collaboration with my friend JJ Rea; he supplied the vocals, drums and guitar solo. I played the verse and bridge guitars, and the guitarrón bassline.

Recorded with my friend Darren Tipper, who lives in England and bounced this back and forth with me for awhile last year via the BandLab mobile app. I did the drum loop, lap steel, bass, banjo and vocal. Darren did the mandolin and organ.

I’m a middle-aged guy with dark blue-green skin and I live in rural Missouri outside of St. Louis.

I play guitar, bass, lap steel and am learning guitarrón. Since 2020 I’ve been exploring collaborative long-distance recording with a few online friends.

from Troy, Missouri
