We’ve joked that we provide the Jonas Brothers this professional courtesy of improving upon their song. In particular, Ian takes something that was intended to be a very straightforward, uncomplicated rhythm into a pile of syncopation on the drums. Caryn* layers coy vocals on top of this and Tim lays a foundation with the bass line.
The piano is just along for the ride on this one. When you play with a great quartet, you continuously get to be immersed in the work of 3 really amazing musicians. This feels like an entirely new song.
And also, we really, really had a fun time playing here on the outdoor patio of UTOG. It was like playing in a back alley and a backyard at the same time.
*And doesn’t Caryn look like she’s an angel with a halo from the backlight here?
