BEAT CONCRETE playing music for change

June Happenings

I've been writing some new songs and exploring my singer-songwriter side a little bit lately. Most recently, I've been working with English folk artist Richard John on a new track. He came up with some chord ideas, then I worked out a verse riff based on them and put a new chorus on it. It's fun to swap ideas back and forth across the Atlantic and I'm pleased with the results so far. You can hear the track I recorded using contributions from Richard on guitar and banjo here. It's a sad song called "The Years"—not sure if we'll play it with Beat Concrete or not; we'll see.

For folks in the North Valley, we're playing the Thursday Night Market in Chico this coming Thursday, June 10, from 6 to 9 PM. Come by and groove with us for a while if you're around. Keep it peaceful and easy, OK?
