Nick Shoulders & the Okay Crawdad - Rather Low *Official Video*

  • In winter of 2020, I planned on taking a cellphone on tour and making a music video out of our new song, Rather Low, which had just been self released from my bedroom in New Orleans. I obviously never played those tours, nor the tours after them, but from the folks willing to put the 'punk' in Podunk, we bring you evidence that the open road can be rewarding and wonderful (despite the song being about the exact opposite). Featuring a rotating cast of Crawdads, this was shot during our southeast tour in December 2021 and represents how our shows and tours have felt entering live music anew (after such a profound hiccup in our roadbound careers). Thanks a billion to Wyatt for selling merch and driving, Grant for playing the hell out of the bass and singing better than me, Cheech for being my favorite drummer on earth and our guardian, Jack for bringing true chaos forth unto us, Sasha for bringing fiddle to the crawdad arena so hard, Nikolai for positively raging on steel, Kurt and Gar Hole for keeping us afloat, Chooch for still making noises with me after a decade of trouble, Jesse for booking the damn shows and big shout out to Caspian (of Scissorbills, Chardonnay, Black Bird Raum) who plays guitar on the original recording, listen to his tunes. Riley Downing and Todd Day Wait make appearances and are worth listening to also! Plus Jack Studer is our guitar lord and a killer songwriter who has a new album out. Miss you Chris!!

    I had the absolute pleasure of seeing this man perform in Austin a few weekends ago and let me tell you, it was unlike anything I've ever been to in my life. His voice doesn't change from video to in-person, it's still the same yodeling young heartthrob that can sing to the moon. If you ever get the chance to see him, TAKE IT AND GO. You'll thank me later

    I got caught driving in a thunderstorm outside Columbus to this album on the middle leg of a Houston to Boston trip. The rain lasted about as long as this album played twice, and these songs helped me stay calm through an hour and change of no visibility white-knuckle sleep deprived hard time driving. Good stuff.

    I saw him last night in Phoenix. I’ve seen hundreds of concerts in my life. This was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Like a cross between a circus and a Pentecostal tent revival, front by an absolutely amazing voice, and backed up by a super tight, kickass band.
    Do yourself a favor and see this guy live.

    I rarely if ever comment on anything on RUclips, but I often hear that its good for the algorithm. So if that hasn't changed by now, I have got to say that even after 2+ years since I first discovered Nick's music, it still excites me whenever he and the people around him put out anything new.

    Well, my eyes adjust
    My joints are rusty
    Sheets are awful cold and dusty
    Roll over folks it must have been another night on the bend
    Kick rocks
    Slept in socks
    BooLahLah and levee walks
    This couch is my kingdom and I swear there's bugs in my head
    Sick sad and sentient
    A penny saved a penny spent
    Asleep at the wheel sure beats being awake in my bed
    Last call to feel small
    I dread the sight of alcohol
    I don't know where this train stops but I want off
    Been rather low
    Out here together
    Reckon that we'll keep trying if rock bottom it never shows
    You're not alone, if there's a storm to weather
    I ain't welcome at home, I don't know about you
    Double takes and double stops
    I double dare ya call the cops
    I'll die where I stand if I hear wagon wheel again
    40 days of foggy nights, withered by the city lights
    I don't remember existential crisis being part of the deal
    I told you once I told you twice
    I'm steeped in verse and cursed in vice
    I traded my 40 acres for a mountain of pain
    Hotdamn Hamm's can
    Blinded in the promised land
    I don't mind if I do declare: we're as good as dead
    Been rather low, out here together
    Reckon that we'll keep trying if rock bottom it never shows
    You're not alone, if there's a storm to weather
    I ain't welcome at home, I don't know about you
    You're not alone, if there's a storm to weather
    I ain't welcome at home, I don't know about you
    I ain't welcome at home, I don't know about you
