This song is about the difficulty, risk and freedom of revealing one's true self to a real friend.  My daughter is an actress in New York City.  This song was specifically written for one of her theater productions.

MADE MAN

This is a true DEMO, its far from finished, but I thought I would just document the idea. This is the first mix without any "fixes" ... LOL.

THE COME DOWN DEMO (First Rough Mix) 01-06-18

Fly Again is the B-Side for our "Hippie Girl" single. The song is an acoustic-electric blend and shows our exploration of various styles and directions at the same time. Fly Again sort of ventures into more of a Rusted Root style of hippie music (leaning heavily on percussion and bongos for the rhythm section). The song has a nice chilled out intro and then slowly builds until a full blown percussion driven ending. As a tie-in: this song style of starting sparse and then continuing to build to a crescendo (without any let up in the slow build) comes back around in later songs like "Rubicon" on the Stone Fly Album. The song (and Hippie Girl single) was recorded and mixed on a Yamaha MTX-8  Eight Track machine.      

Fly Again

A sad bluesy guitar workout.

To be honest, for someone who has barely played in almost 12 months it ain't too bad. There was literally dust on my guitar. 

Anyway, is it me or is there  something a bit strange with the sound quality on this one? It comes across a bit wonky, but it is OK.

Anyway, just a bit of blues for your shoes.

Enjoy

------  BIO -------
The Foothill Tribe (f/k/a Steel Dog Cafe) is a three piece alternative-psychedelic-progressive rock band (and recording artist) from the tiny ocean-side town of Destin, Florida, USA. The Tribe is: Clay Urquhart (Guitars | Vocals); Rob Gilmore (Drums | Vocals); Daniel Bertram (Bass Guitar).  

A Note On The Photos: The picture beside each uploaded song is the Cover Art for the Album, EP, or Single the song is on. We will update our Profile with our discography soon.   

We really enjoy (and continue) trying  to push the creative envelope with our music, whether it be with our songs or instrumentals. We often incorporate different genres, styles, and sounds into our music. Our desire and goal is to create original music that is interesting, different, and uniquely recognizable as The Foothill Tribe's own sound. Thank for listening and we truly hope you enjoy our material.   

As a three piece power trio we have no separate front man. We tried out several "would-be" front men when we were first forming the band, but ultimately we were not satisfied with any of the proposed lead singers because they just did not fit with the band or our vision for the future. Out of necessity we made the decision to handle vocals ourselves in what would become a "twin lead-singer" approach with Clay (guitars) and Rob (drums) both handling lead vocals, and with Dan (bass guitar), Clay, and/or Rob handling back-up vocals depending on who was singing lead. This twin lead-vocal approach has developed over the years and forms a key ingredient (and some have gone as far as calling it a trademark) of the band's sound.   

Over the course of writing and recording our various Albums, EPs, and Single releases the band's sound has developed significantly. There are a handful of songs along our path that show the growth of our sound and are witness to a change in the band's direction creatively. We hope to have a chance to tell some of the stories about these key songs and what was going on at the time. We try to offer a bit of background on each song, and sometimes even the lyrics are posted, in the song description for anyone who might be interested in a bit more info about a song.  
 
Since joining Sound Cloud, we have made some awesome new friends and met some great bands and artists. We really appreciate all who listen to our music and who have elected to follow us. Our sincerest thanks! We look forward to continuing to share our music, to making more new friends, and to continuing to discover new and inspiring music/artists/bands as we all grow together. THANKS TO ALL for  sharing in our story and for allowing us to share in yours!  Thanks again for listening to The Tribe!
