Our very own upbeat-swing-country version of a great old tune. Improvised & recorded live from the DeWil's Dungeon during rehearsal by means of a Tascam DR-40 on one track & slightly master-refined by our drummer.

NOTE: Our Soundcloud-Page is now primarily meant for the many Covers we play randomly. If you would like to check out more of our original music we recommend you use our others channels & you are always very welcome on our homepage: dewilandhisdemons.com. There will be new original content on all our channels though.
BD & HD play Indie- Americana, Folk, Alternative/Outlaw/Dark Country & Hellbilly, Grunge, Prog, Psychedelic, R & R, Ballads & Chansons, and anything else that comes to mind and pleases the burning soul. Songs about the bipolarity of things, love & hate, psychedelic, poetic, wild & smooth, we try to feature all of life's aspects in our work. If you dance with the DeWil, the DeWil don't change, he changes you.

I'm trying to teach myself how to sing in order to strengthen and improve my voice. I have no experience with any of this stuff and don't know what I'm doing. Most of the things I post will just be for reference so I can look back and see if I've improved over time.
