Lebanon 145 and me, the bad band








Click here to download 'Saydet el Reeh'

I say bad not in that I'm admitting my lack of talent (though I wouldn't be so arrogant to call myself the best), I'm bad at updating. I've reached 145 and I'm still very much actively recording music. With work, I hardly feel like posting after I've recorded. I feel like planting myself and doing nothing. Which is fine sometimes. And though I do post many of the songs on facebook (which you can find here http://www.facebook.com/pages/Swimmingpool-The-Band/383899140556), I somehow neglect to update here. The songs above are the first two from Lebanon. I hope you enjoy them!

Both are from one session. Me + Keys, clarinet, violin, vocals (and maybe guitar, I can't remember and I don't feel like stripping through the layers to figure out).
Album art is also posted above.
