Here's a brand spanking new lo-fi blues & roots song for the Couch by Couchwest 2015 (CXCXW2015) festival. Filmed March 14th 2015 in my rehearsal place. I´m playing one of my newest home built cigar box guitars and stomping on my diy suitcase kick drum. Enjoy :)

Please watch in HD.

Thanks Paddy! Yeppers, it's a short scale cbg, but plays quite good. I think it's tuned in open C(ish) here.

Wow,  working that short scale git to the bluesy max.   Man, good song and vocals too.
