Pickin' at Larry Keel's Springfest 2012 Campsite

Recorded live onstage inside the Spirit of Suwannee Cafe during Hulaween 2013!   I had the pleasure of starting each day with a morning Loop set!  Hope you enjoy it, warts and all!

All the sounds here are live loops and this tune only uses the acoustic guitar and an electric bass.  All percussion sounds come from the guitar!
