    Carson McKee and Joshua Lee Turner play a very old song, which we learned from The Pizza Tapes. from Wikipedia: "written by Danny Dill and Marijohn Wilkin and originally recorded by Lefty Frizzell." Recorded by dozens since.
    Our most recent album: amzn.to/2ENV6BZ
    instagram: @theotherfavorites
    Recorded on a pair of sE Voodoo VR2's into an ART Pro MPA II. Filmed on a Canon EOS 200D with a 24mm f/2.8 pancake.
    Carson's guitar, "Ginger," is a '59; mine, "Morris," is a '61.

      These young men are so unpretentious and modest about their talent and hard work. Best guitar and vocals I've heard in a long time. Restores my faith in young talent. Imagine vocals with no pitch perfect device or singing over a laryngectomy box. No effects on guitar absolutely perfect.

Terrific controlled lyrics, harmony, and great guitar playing, reminding me a little of Doc Watson's crispness. Kudos to you both!
