The crowd, photographed by performer Chris Edwards: HAVING FUN! Then the Speckled Bird played through all seven songs from their new EP.This recording features lots of instruments that work well with the songs: guitar, harmonica, mandolin, banjo, glockenspiel, cello, clarinet, slide guitar, accordion, and more. The sound recording and mixing are excellent, and the packaging of the EP is very attractive. I love the fact that it has all the lyrics, so I can enjoy the poetry of each song to the fullest. The musicality of the individual band members is evident, yet all parts contribute to a very fulfilling whole.
The t-shirt is pretty cool too!

I am waiting for my CD! How did you score the cool T shirt? I think you must be "with the band"
You can be with the band too, for only $10. :-) Hope you love the CD too, Janet! Hope you blog more, too; I miss it when you don't. (Like I should talk.)
You forgot to mention that one of the instruments on the EP is the rarely heard faux saw. You can hear it on "Match Made in Heaven."
You mean, the vocal saw??
I don't know how I did it but I ordered the wrong CD. So today I ordered the new one. We need to support the arts...
awww. I hope the wrong one is good too!
