Square Dancing is Cool

Earlier this year, I worked with square dance producer Scott Bennett to produce a square dance track to the Lou Rawls song "Miss My Lovin' ".  It was a fantastic learning experience where I got to dip my toes in a completely different music scene.  I also had a great time trying to recreate the sound of 70's soul.

Scott and I were both very excited that the song was picked up and performed around by square dancing giant Tony Oxendine.  I've been told that this song has now been played in locations all of the world.  This is always fantastic news for any musician.

Here's a video of him performing it in South Carolina.  It was cool for me to see because even though I can arrange and play the instruments, it doesn't mean that I know how the dance is going to look out when its actually being called.  I thought you might like to see as well. :)
