thejay Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Broke format a bit this weekend as I am a part of a duo that is working on an EP. Which to any of you that work with just one other person as a full band format it can be a challenge. Post quite a few 'shootouts' as well with gear - guitars, amps, etc... ANYWAY. Had a lot of fun recording over the week... and even more shooting a the video. A first for us after all these years of writing, recording and gigging. Here it is - a cover of Bananarama's "Cruel Summer". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3t4gON-9L9E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 That was really entertaining. Great job. Was the "concept" all your guys idea? The camera work was done very well. It didn't have an amateur, home-movie look to it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejay Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Thank you! Yes our idea and considering never done this before it turned out really great, we are very pleased. For the most part I was shooting unless I was in the frame. Propped the camera or he shot, my wife shot the "battle" at the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glp2012 Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I liked your video and the way you guys played and sang the song. I'm not a fan of the actual song or Bananarama. It was just on the radio yesterday and I turned it off! I'd like to see more of your bands stuff or a different song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
