This week’s song is interesting in that it has a strong electronic feel to it, but everything was recorded on an acoustic guitar (with the exception of Patrick’s vocals.)  Patrick did the lion’s share of the work on Saturday and I did a …

Back to back covers!  This week we tackled “Chasing Pavements” by Adele.  She’s a really fantastic singer that you should take the time to listen to if you haven’t already (Adele on itunes).  There’s a reason she had four Grammy nominations this year.  …
