Doing a Twitch show is a unique performing experience. While the venue has more creature comforts, you tend to play much longer sets than at a music venue. You have to be ready for anything at either gig, but there is a tension and freedom taking random requests and improvising on a song you may have never played before. Nate did a fantastic job winging it with one of Barbara’s favorite Red Hot Chili Peppers songs, Dosed, on YouTube today.
Street Spirit~ Live by Request
New YouTube video today! The Repressions cover “Street Spirit” by Radiohead, live from their May 28, 2022 show on Twitch.
Jib Jig from Donkey Kong
Music must be explored and appreciated from all angles, and when Nate gets going with the loop pedal, barrels of music get tossed. Enjoy Jib Jig!
