Down Home Girl



I started jamming on wednesday nights with Brad Campbell in an unscripted play for fun kinda moment about 7 years ago. Sessions usually began with dinner and wine with Brad's partner Martine and their pack of dogs... Brad and I would retire to the basement with one of us bringing forward a song idea that together we jammed, improved and fumbled our way through... headphones on and relishing the spontenaity of it all.... sometimes with surprising results. Seldom were music or lyrics fully developed or written down... obvious from the recorded results.

This is one of those moments.We picked an old standard called Down Home Girl that we were first exposed to thru the Rolling Stones. We turned on the recorder and played thru... 2 guitars... no script... and a couple lyrical ad libs. Brad then added a base part later and voila!

This track has been sitting on a few cds amongst friends and on this blog for a while now.

I have recently been creating music videos for friends... and have now taken a shot at this early DustBunnies favourite.



The video is an edited pile of clips from Dusk Til Dawn... featuring the best snake dance ever... by Salma Hayak. If this a made for money project I would not use this footage... but as it is a made for fun... then what to hell.

More to come... hope you enjoy.
