#203911 - 05/21/13 03:29 PM [User Showcase] The Heartache Line
Registered: 12/05/11 Posts: 7037 Loc: GA USA Janice & Bud Veteran Registered: 12/05/11 Posts: 7037 Loc: GA USA	The Heartache Line "Grab three chords and hang on" This was the way we used to introduce a song like this back in our bluegrass band days. After posting mostly blues songs over the past few months we decided to revisit our bluegrass roots by writing this tune. The intent was to create a basic, fast, simple, hard driving bluegrass song with lyrics that felt traditional. We worked it up with Janice playing rhythm and me upright bass in order to get a tempo that would be about the speed of the fastest stuff we used to play. We were at the mercy of our talented and lightening fast banjo picker. For the uninitiated and those who detest bluegrass you might need the benefit of a Bluegrass Exposure support group afterwards. Check your local listing for time and dates of the meetings. A big thanks to Floyd for the harmony vocal. And thank you for taking the time to listen. Vocal: Lead and High Harmony Janice - Rodes NT1 interfaced via Blue icicle to iMac. Vocal: Low Harmony Floyd Jane RealTracks: Bass 427, Banjo R 426, Banjo S 433, Fiddle R 428, Fiddle S 434, Mandolin R 432 Mandolin S 436, Guitar R 431, Guitar S 435 All RealTracks were ported to GarageBand via BIAB's interface. All effects and mixing were done in the DAW. Each solo track is cut and spliced from multiple RealTrack generations.

I enjoyed your combined effort very much, everything sounded so smooth and effortless, a big joy to listen to. I am also very impressed by that "lightningfast" banjoplayer of yours (lol) !!:) Cheers Dani

You left me breathless at the end. Loved it The only thought in my mind at the moment is "Gosh that was mighty good". You two are an ocean of talent. I also compliment floyd on his excellent harmonies. Really top notch work! All the best, Noel _________________________ LINKS TO MY BIAB/RB SONGS audios on Soundcloud videos on VIMEO

Veteran Registered: 03/18/04 Posts: 6510 Loc: South Louisiana	Great job by all . . . little doubt this is the genre where you guys really shine, especially Janice as I could envision her on the stage at the Grand Ole Opry right along side the likes of The Whites and Bill Monroe as I listen to her voice. Wonderful effort. Later, _________________________ Danny C. www.dannycampo.com https://www.facebook.com/pages/Danny-Campo/379776252109306?skip_nax_wizard=true The More You Drink The Better I Sound

Your are as good as anyone I hear on TV or anywhere. You are a real pro and your voice is spectacular. You could be a bluegrass star.

DANG! I want to be you when I grow up! I especially like the fact that you so easily create new songs in old genres instead of just rehashing whats already been done. Your years spent playing to an audience really shows through in your recordings... you bring an enthusiasm to the material that is often lacking in songs that are played to a DAW. Your presence on the forum raises the bar for the rest of us. I really like everything that you've posted. If I were an alien who could absorb your talent, I'm afraid you'd both be sucked as dry as a cicada's shell. But I can't, so you're safe.

Registered: 12/05/11 Posts: 7037 Loc: GA USA Janice & Bud Veteran Registered: 12/05/11 Posts: 7037 Loc: GA USA	Thanks everybody for the kind comments. We know bluegrass isn't for everyone (what is?) and we appreciate y'all both taking the time to listen and comment. Janice & Bud Pat, thanks very much for the remarks....but, hey, don't remind me of those #$%#@ cicadas. We suffered through 6 weeks of them three years ago (ours are on a different cycle than yours). Sounded like aliens had landed in the forest we live in, "husks" everywhere and to this day our hiking/mountain biking trails look like swiss cheese from where they emerged. _________________________ Check out our BiaB SoundCloud songs!

Registered: 08/10/12 Posts: 6861 Loc: Florida floyd jane Veteran Registered: 08/10/12 Posts: 6861 Loc: Florida	Janice and Bud - It is such a pleasure to be a part of something SO fine - a very small part - my harmonies took all of about 15 minutes.... And most of that time was spent being "lost in the song" - listening to how amazingly well the tracks were laid in - and that HEAVENLY voice! The banjo sounds like the guy is right there is front of you. And that HEAVENLY voice! It's like you can see that guitar picker step up to take his turn at the microphone. And that HEAVENLY voice! You somehow manage to make the band sound "so real" that you can see them all smiling at how tight they are.... And, oh, that HEAVENLY voice!!! Everything you do is top-shelf. I am a fan. floyd _________________________ 125+ BIAB Songs
