Jerry Joseph New Single Premiere: Song about Virginia City, MT
Monday Aug. 15th, 2016
JERRY'S THOUGHTS ON THE SONG
I / we have a long and magically sordid history with Big Sky country. We have been doing a three-night run in Virginia City, Montana for over a decade now…always a peak performance for the band…as well as an inferno of band drama.
3-7-77 is a number associated with the VC vigilantes in the 19th century. If you google the story I’m sure you will be left as confused as I am, but know it’s a pure reading of VC life. How the fuck Passover references got in here is unclear…perhaps watching the Disney cartoon version of Moses with my kids…or a little too much time in Pikesville.
The song is the first release from a series of tracks we recorded last January at Jackpot! Recording Studio in PDX. Dave Schools producing and Dex and Adam Lee mixing.
It’s just the trio.
Dex, Stevie and me…I thought Crosby was on it…apparently, however, he was at an open mic at the Laurelthirst recording a live record between guitar takes.
So it’s just the three of us doing that thing the three of us occasionally pull off like fucking gladiators…we wanted to have this available for the VC shows…as nobody actually buys music anyway…it’s free.
Enjoy and see you at Banditos…bring bullets.
Love and Kisses.
Jerry Joseph and the Jackmormons
