Video Ezy - Hedy Blaazer
What a treat it was when Hedy asked me to work on this song with her! We have a long history of playing in bands together but have been separated by the geographical distinction between Melbourne and Sydney for some time. She asked to work on this song together while she was visiting wurundjeri country. Over two days we came up with this arrangement and tracked the song.
The song features some of the more chaotic drum programming moments I have conjured, some gorgeous slide slide guitar moments and synths that reference VCR pre-rolls. I loved delving into the lyrics with Hedy to find the character for each line!
Thanks to Jim Dusty for lending us a lap steel guitar for this track and Pat Johnson for providing the backing vocals.
