New Song - Covid 19 Back Porch Jam
SEE NEW UPDATE BELOW:
Hey everybody...hope ur all hanging in there! Just wanted to fill u in on a new song I wrote and posted to YouTube yesterday. The song is called "Covid 19 Back Porch Jam" It's a fun, uplifting song that is meant to provide positive support and hope to anyone having difficulty in these trying times. Please go to YouTube and type in Covid 19 Back Porch Jam to check it out (and share with others who need some cheering up!)
To be able to laugh amidst adversity is truly a God given gift! My hope is that this song will help lighten your load!
John Michael Karnatz
BTW...I'm not looking too make any money from the song....just want to help people feel better about their situation and maybe smile and laugh a bit....
NOTE: Here is the YouTUbe link. THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP, MARK! (SEE BELOW COMMENT)

Re: Covid 19 Back Porch Jam
Hey John!
I’d recommend posting the link here if you want people to check it out. On one hand, there’s inevitably a ton of videos that will come up when someone types “covid 19” on YouTube. Also - that’s a lot of unnecessary steps and a lot of unneeded friction. Post the link and it’s an easy one-click decision for people to see it. Would love to check it out
All the best and stay safe,
Mark

The Covid 19 BPJ is going to stick in my head all day!
I love the chorus' where everyone and everything comes in; sounds like a washboard and cowbell.
Awesome!
Thanks for this. =)

Thanks for your kind comments,Brad! Yeah, washboard, cowbell (gotta have more cowbell!) and gang vocals,etc, all come in on the chorus.
Hopefully the chorus sticks in your head long enough to provide some positive, uplifting thoughts, during your day....
Thanks again, Brad!

Hey feaker66,
Thanks for listening and your comments. Yes, that was fun putting it together. My main intent was to provide some uplifting music for anyone having difficulty in these hectic times and I'm happy that Covid 19 BPJ may be helping others...
I see you are from Michigan. We used to vacation up around the Manistee/Arcadia area. Is that near you at all?
Thanks.... and stay safe man!

Thanks for sharing John! I have been listening to "eerie, ambient drones" and it's nice to hear a fun song for a change.
Great job! And I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy!
