"Sitting by the train tracks reading Kafka to the sky"
[mp3]: Jason Webley - "Eleven Saints"
Usually the song's at the end of the post but why is that? The song is what really matters and all the rest is just "dancing about architecture". In this case Jason Webley's song, "Eleven Saints", is catchy, clever and has a great mix of folk, gypsy, and accordian music (btw the simple stop gap animated video is a bit of an internet sensation with 76,000 views to date). I think some of the best lines from "Eleven Saints" are:
"If my cat looks scared it's because he knows he's not going to heaven"
"If you'd like to bake me a loaf of bread, it's got to be on leaven"
"Coffee percolating....going wheeeeeee"
Jason Webley is part of a four band lineup this Friday, Aug. 3rd at South Union Arts. I'm sure this former street musician and all around man of the arts will leave you captivated.
