"I've got a bad habit of starting love songs and they end up being about horses. So then you get into the whole stable relationship thing..."
'The Horse I Rode In On', Corb Lund's tale of the Ponoka Stampede. Performed during the second half of the JUNO Award's Songwriters' Circle on April 6th, 2008 in Jack Singer Concert Hall, Calgary, Alberta. He talks a bit about the story and jokes around. Sorry the clip cuts off short, I was running out of battery power and space.
The event:
MCed by Jian Ghomeshi and hosted by Joel Plaskett. With performances in the first half by Jeremy Fisher, Serena Ryder, AlexCuba and Joel Plaskett. Performing in the second half were Tegan Quin, Bedouin Soundclash's Jay Malinowski, Corb Lund, and Joel Plaskett.
All seven musicians were 2008 JUNO nominees. They shared anecdotes and sometimes explained the stories behind a few of their hit songs. All performances were acoustic.
Organized by The Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (CARAS), presented by the Canadian Music Publishers Association (CMPA) and the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada (SOCAN). Proceeds from Songwriters' Circle benefit CARAS' music education program, MusiCan.
brings a tear to my eye, such a beautiful song Corb.
