Silent Etudes

This blog is a mysterious arrangement of merciless logic for a futile purpose. It's a place they turn the lights down low, the jigsaw jazz and the jet fresh flow. A place for the humble, the nimble, the inward and the handmade. A jam session where Django Reinhardt meets Ludwig Wittgenstein while listening to Baden Powell quoting Charlie Parker. A pithy palace of puns and subversions. A place for broken chords and backyard tropes.

Distant Music (JB Archive Series)

Here's one from the archives. An extremely low-fi recording of my little band from some years ago. When I say "low-fi" I'm not kidding. This was recorded using a little $30 cassette player with built-in microphone. It was just sitting on the floor running during this rehearsal.

Anyway, there's 3 pieces going here: myself on guitar and vocals, a bass player and a drummer. The tune--Young Fashioned Ways-- is one I learned from the rockabilly legend Sleepy LaBeef.
