lyrics

some blues are like the wind – they blow through you, you never feel ‘em again. if you’re never really very deep in, those blues are like the wind. some blues are like a lake – they leave you feeling clean in their wake. when you recognize your mistakes, those blues are like a lake. but my blues are like the earth – an angel set me down, and there they were. when they’re under your feet like a curse, those blues are like the earth. some blues are like your friend – they come and they go, and then they come back again. if you always let ‘em back in, those blues are like your friend.

The Scrimshanders Boston, Massachusetts

The Scrimshanders came out of Jamaica Plain, MA in 1998. John Magee, Tom Baker, Jamie Griffith and Kevin Scollan grabbed a case or two of Buds and a bag of songs one night; the rest is history. Ace pedal steelman Tim Obetz lent a regular hand. Joby DeCoster took over from Scollan on drums in the early going, and "Longneck" was born.

It took 9 years for the followup to appear. Will there be more?
