What happens when two Seeds rise from sleep and convene to talk about goings on into a microphone? Bavanacast Episode 3!!! We are back from tour and working on new music (yay!). In this episode we play you a snippet of a new song called "Flintlock Fire," which will appear in a more complete capacity on our next full-length.
Ain't nobody gonna break'a our stride, ain't nobody gonna hold us down, oh no
Yep! Episode two for your listening pleasure!
This one took a lot longer to finish for some reason because we tried recording music WHILE WE WERE IN MOTION, drumming on the steering wheel and such, and it kept being all DANGEROUS and INTERRUPTIBLE by horns and phonecalls and such.
So we stopped at a gas station, rolled down the windows and fired out "Coyote Song," much to the delight of the car full of kids next to us. Brian played steering wheel and foot well, I played guitar and Margaret played kazoo and claps. It was pretty awesome!
We'll have the next episode up shortly; we're playing in Buffalo NY tonight! Enjoy, and be sure to comment or email us (band at theseedyseeds dot com) about what you think of the Bavanacasts, what you'd like to hear, and song requests!
Phew. We've been busy. REAL busy. Like, CRAZY busy. And we have been SEVERELY NEGLECTING this here blog. We miss you guys, and we miss telling you about all the fun we're having on the road.
We decided, on this May 2010 Tour, to try a little experiment. To this end, we proudly present: BAVANACAST!
Every couple of days on this tour we'll be recording a podcast from our very sweet giant yellow van, Bavanarama. We'll be telling you about the tour, upcoming sweet contests and deals, and be sharing music that we've recorded in the van, and in other locations.
This first episode was a blast to record but QUITE AN ADVENTURE to get put together and put on the interwebs' facetubes. We definitely learned a lot and I think we've definitely got the kinks worked out so this will be much easier to do in the future. Let us know what you think!
Lastly, and we mention this in the podcast, but just to DRIVE IT HOME (haw haw) we're on our way back to Cincinnati to perform at The Mad Hatter tonight, and we wanted to let you know about our sweet contest, "Score for Four."
If you show up at the Mad Hatter with three of your friends / compatriots / relatives / etc, and tell the door person that you're here to "Score for Four," you will EACH receive a free CD, and YOU YOURSELF will get an extra special free gift just for organizing the thing!
Enjoy the podcast, and we'll see you all soon soon soon!
