Tim Eriksen and Riley Baugus- I Wish My Baby Was Born

On the road with Riley Baugus- playing old time music, listening to Motorhead and eating pork rinds. Riley built both instruments in the video. Eli Hetko is tour managing and shot the video.

We did this song for the movie Cold Mountain, me singing for actor Brendan Gleeson and Riley singing for Ethan Suplee in one of the most tense moments in the movie, they start singing. If you saw it at a theater and were annoyed at the people laughing in the back, they were probably friends of ours cracking up to hear our voices coming out of their heads.

@HandsUpLaura there are some at the website in the song info-

It's expensive to mail them, but CDs are much cheaper in dollars than in euros!

i wish i could find some banjo tab to this song??

[batfancy]

@USMC1861 Yeah, I hear you. But we just kind of went for it- not much to put in tabs if you know what I mean. You can sure contact Riley about the tuning he used- that would be a good start.

I would be very interested in purchasing one of Riley's Banjos. Is this even a possibility?

[batfancy]

@robsansonetti Check his website- I know he's often too busy playing to take orders, but you might get lucky...

So real - just beautiful. Technology is good, at least for this one thing - thousands of people can share in this awesome front-porch moment :-)

Riley Baugus and great musicians like him are one of the reasons I LOVE living in North Carolina. You can't go anywhere here without hearing great bluegrass.

The simple truth...........

[westchesterny]

Never heard of this guy. When I was little, you could hear this kind of music in Appalachia, just on our back porches. Seemed like a lot of people played, not like now. There was more of an interest in regionalism. Now everything is so radically "federalized" that there is no real culture left in many places, lol--- a bunch of "consumers" and "box stores," and so on.

[DemonsToSome1987]

I could live in this song forever and always, Tim you're incredible, I'll happily sit and listen to you for hours

Beautiful, real music, and wonderful singing.

@dora51300 Did you ever find the tabs? Post them if you've got them please!

[Gothicyannick]

Wow, that is amazing music! I've been searching for a long time now after this kind of it! :)
