Karen and I wrote this song together a couple weeks ago, but ran out of time to record it. Karen has a wonderful mountain backdrop behind her house, but we didn’t quite capture it in the video, though the clouds were pretty cool.
Karen wanted to do something bluesy and I wanted to do a duet. The first thing that came to my mind was “Tramp” by Otis Redding and Carla Thomas, which is basically a back-and-forth between the two singers complaining about each other. Our tune started off a bit darker and I think we got a cool, Stonesy groove in the end.
This is definitely a rough arrangement and we’ll look towards tightening things up for the future; but this sucker has a special groove— I look forward to playing this live.
