Daydreamin'
iTunes//Amazon//Spotify
"Daydreamin'" was a honky tonker by Bud Deckelman. The song was actually the B-side of "Let's Pretend", the only 7" single that he recorded for Memphis based Meteor Records in 1955. Meteor hoped to increase the audience for their R&B based country music outside of the South, where Bud was from, by opening a branch of their record label in Hollywood. Bud also recorded a single for Stomper Time Records--also out of Memphis, which had a stable chock full of Hillbillies and Rockabillies. Here's our take on Daydreamin'.

This song was written on acoustic guitar and we always feel like it works well in that format... it's been a part of Rancid's acoustic set many times.

We are all ramping up for a new Rancid record and upcoming tour with the Transplant$ and new Transplant$ record all coming this summer. Things are getting exciting.
Keeping it in the spirit of what's going on around here, here's an acoustic version of "Detroit".

No artist toured as much and for as long as Ernest Tubb, Honky-Tonk singer-songwriter and star of the Grand Ole Opry. We're talking 150-200 shows a year between the 1960s and early 80s. Respect!

Till The Well Runs Dry
This is our second Specialty Records artist that we've recorded a song by. It's a late 50s jumper by singer songwriter Wynona Carr. Now, she was a true innovator and maverick that mixed up the blues and jazz and r&b and swirled it together into a froth with her golden Gospel singing background. She was a stone cold belter and a wickedly cool and sophisticated lyric writer. We hope you dig our take of this slammer.
