Grape Diggers Videojam #4

New jam here. It might be 20 minutes long. It's all sparkly clear and HD so I won't embed it, you need to follow the echo here.

"Grappling Head Songs" album art

Jimi did us some lovely bits of art for the album. Here are some of his offerings:

Some silly improvs

Here is a video of Crust, Cal and Myself pissing about, having a bit of a jam and making up nonsense songs. Whilst this isn't isn't a very listenable session, with lyrics falling out like a messy piss, it does offer an insight into what it can be like when we are just feeling about for starting points. This is often how our proper songs start out.

New song "BREAK MY STRIDE" and likely album tracklist

Hey there scamps. We have fully recorded our album I reckon. There might be a few bits to do here and there but it's basically done. We haven't done much for the past few weeks because Jimi has gone away travelling. We'll probably release it when he gets back. Here is another one from it, it's a simple little ditty we call "Break My Stride".



and here is how the album will probably look:

Brick Challenge
Pocket Thief
Long Time Dead
Mother's Pies
Rickety Bones
Can Be Gone
Messy Bones
Peace Of Mind
This Warm Stage
Tactical
Slapstick Crime Routine
Pear Tree
Break My Stride
Bloody Nose

Grape Diggers on THESIXTYONE (+ another new song)

Hey scouts we've got this 61 swing style up and running where people heart songs and our popularity is boosted somewhat. You can also download them. It'd be swell if you could all go over there and heart our songs. There is a new song called "Pocket Thief" up and it needs fueling up the charts so we can rub shoulders with Cher and The Jonas Brothers.

See the "new" tab on there? That's where the latest songs appear. I will try to add at least one new one a week until we run out or get stopped in our tracks by the bandwidth police.
