DJ Hairy Larry Presents Hairy Larry Singing Twin Stars

Hairy Larry And George

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Hairy Larry Singing Twin Stars
From The Archives Of Something Blue - 2025-05-18

Thanks Marty, today we're going to hear a song I sang at my Senior Composition Recital.

I was taking Music History when I learned the music terminology art song and I thought, that's what I'm writing for my recital, art songs.

One of those songs I called "Twin Stars", a love song based on my life with Vivian.

It is performed by Hairy Larry and George with a guest, Pershauna Johnson, playing alto flute. Alto flute has a beautiful sound, breathy like a flute but with a lower pitch. Pershauna did a great job on this song. She was a graduate student at ASU at the time.

Also playing was George Hinds on bass, my partner in crime and a lifetime resident of Northeast Arkansas. George was from a musical family and he played with everyone, Billy Lee Riley, Larry Donn, Dennis Mathes, and myself. We played for years as a duo and also in The Swing Band Project. We recorded two albums, "Hip Sexagenarians" and "Aggie Road" and now that they changed the copyright law about streaming music we have one in the can, "Hairy Larry Does Dylan", soon to be released.

So now, recorded live in the Fine Arts Recital Hall on November 8, 2013, here's Hairy Larry and George with Pershauna Johnson playing my song, "Twin Stars".

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Sky City Playing Rain Song

Sky City

DJ Hairy Larry Presents Sky City Playing Rain Song
From The Archives of Something Blue May 4, 2024

https://sbblues.com/2025/05/04/draggin/

Sky City
Thanks Marty, today we're going to hear an original song recorded at the Arkansas Roots Festival.

I first met Sky City at Blues Fest. They volunteered so I booked them. They have always delivered wonderful performances.

Since then they played again at Blues Fest, Sunday In The Park and Bebopalooza. Nathan Crouch even joined us for an evening of Grateful Dead songs at TheArts@311. It is also through Sky City that I met Tonja McKay, an entomologist, and a fine violinist or fiddler, as we say in Arkansas. She helped me record "Three songs from Astral Weeks" at TheArts@311.

In fact all the musicians in the band are outstanding. Playing at the Arkansas Roots Festival on April 8, 2017 were Nathan Crouch - acoustic guitar and vocals, Grant Camp - bass and vocals, Tanja McKay - violin, Matt Pierce - electric guitar and vocals, and Jason Hatcher - drums, all long time Jonesboro residents.

I will leave many links at the Something Blue website at sbblues.com.

I picked a beautiful tune, a live version of "Rain Song" debuted on their album "Quantico Traveler", to play for you today. Nathan Crouch wrote it.

And here they are now, Sky City playing "Rain Song".
