Joe Eddie enters songwriting contest

Howdy fans of Joe Eddie!

Just dropping a note to update you on a few new songs that I’ve written in the past few weeks…

A local brewery, Half Brothers, in downtown Grand Forks, is sponsoring a songwriting competition throughout the summer.
Contestants are asked to submit a new song, recorded live, each week through the months of June, July, and August.
You can see all of my song entries on my youtube channel, at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz4q1RWJPb53G-JwY681q8w/featured

For my song entries, I decided to write each one as part of a larger collective story.  I’m angling for a sort of river fishing adventure story.
Here are the first four songs, in order of appearance:

Song #1:  “Ain’t Gon’ Fishin’ (In The Mornin’)”  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7niOc3LNz9Q&t=30s

Song #2:  “Lady Foot Dangle” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vw_MnEtUxaw&t=24s

Song #3:  “All On The Banks Of The Muddy Red River” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uxgs8M5_tmg

Song #4:  “Into The Belly Of The Catfish” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsp_777fhAI

The next entry is due today ….  so I’ll be looking for inspiration, reaching for my pen, in just a few minutes …
I hope you enjoy the songs, and the story.  I realize they’re a little long, and the cuts are a little rough …
Hopefully, in time, they get ironed out a bit, and when all’s sung and done, we end up with a nice little folk story.

If you’re following along, I sure thank you, and please feel free to let me know!
Thanks —
Peace, love,
Joe Eddie
