Today, Huge droplets of rain, sun shining, there is a rainbow in the distance, and the nearby hills are no where to be seen. Giboulée Weather! I would say it is my favorite French word for the time being. I learn a lot of wonderful French vocabulary from songs. I wanted to do a more up beat tune this time around, but it will have to wait for a sunnier day (and until my guitar playing gets better and I can play faster tunes 😊) for today it's giboulée. I fell in love with this haunting tune by Camélia Jordana a few weeks ago; I tried to find a haunted place to record it, you can probably see the ghosts walking around in the background

I love this time of year in California, in Winter/Spring when the green grass abounds. I have for years now wanted to make a video of my favorite Tom Waits tune, surrounded by a green world. Here it is! I find an added poignancy this year, watching the green grass spring up over lands that were recently burned by the fires; they are brilliant emerald now. A reminder that amidst loss and destruction there comes healing and regrowth. |
