FINALLY!!!

Here it is, it’s done, it’s finished, it is finally out in the open!

Here’s the quick back story:

1. I hate country music.

2. @bspence88 suggested we write a country song together. Fine, but what to write about?

3. I took a quick vacation to Shuswap Lake with the aforementioned @bspence88, among others, and after 3 days of interesting misadventures we looked at each other and realised our song was born. After a few weeks of writing, I got it right (further inspired by a second trip up to the lake of course). Except that most of the lyrics are in code – can’t let y’all know exactly what goes on up there now can we?

4. I play no guitar, fiddle, or drums. Everything in this song is from straight out of my little ol’ computer.

5. Our fine lead vocalist has never actually sang in front of a microphone, only along with bad country singers at a very loud volume. I think he did a very respectable job.

6. I wrestled with the sound mix for 4 days and while not 100% satisfied (none of us ever are) I think it really is the best sounding track I have ever produced. This thing is gonna pop out of your stereo.

7. Don’t blame me if it gets stuck in your head. It’s tasty catchy.

I’ve stalled long enough. The one, the only, “Back In My Boat.”

As always, enjoy!
