Re: Music for Redwing

Wow, thanks for the link to Calvin Vollrath. He's got some nice selections on there. (Had a gig last week which included a catered dinner beforehand, and I primed the pump by playing tunes with lyrics including "you're got to dance with who brung you, swing with who swung you" and "there's a dance here tonight tonight, oh honey won't you come along with me" just in case anyone was thinking this would be a spectator activity.) Yesterday I liked these people: https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/housatonicphilharmonic https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/housatonicphilharmonic This one needs speeding up, but it's 4+ minutes. https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/joeerik https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/joeerik Oh look, you can "refine by subgenre" and select "instrumental" https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/fiddlinpete2 https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/fiddlinpete2 This one is 5:12 https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/williamsbray https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/williamsbray The filter "sounds like" obviates the song title. Likewise specifying "contra dance," although that does pull up nice long cuts. --Karen D.
