Hey all! As a teaser for my upcoming EP, my friend and I decided to release a low-key song called "Whiskey" that I wanted to share with all of you. It's super stripped down and light. This was all recorded with my Studio 2/6 and mixed with Studio One, naturally. Love this gear.

Listen to "Whiskey" from ByNorthwest on:
Spotify
iTunes / Apple Music
Amazon
Bandcamp

I hope you enjoy and would love to hear your initial impressions. Thank you for listening!

I like the feel of it. The vocals are the best part for me. The slide guitar seems a bit of place compared to rest of the song though. Not sure why, but it kind of stood out in an odd way to me. Still a good song. Nice backing vocals here & there too. Just enough to keep it interesting.

Thanks for listening! I appreciate your comments. Interestingly, there's no slide guitar in this song at all. It's just all bending. It's always interesting to hear how people interpret your music. :)

In regards to Tim Morris, I appreciate you listening...

Interesting from the current norm. 8-)
Overall it's a nice idea and pleasant to the ear.

My 2 cents:
-But it does share with "Knocking" and repeating the "cigarettes" verse 3 times is too much for me. :oops:
-Also the main guitar could come down 2-3 dB and bring up the left, nearly inaudible guitar. ;)

It's more acoustic than my current stuff. It's the one I pull out at open mics haha. Thank you so much for the listen!

@scottyo7 I'm also really digging your group. Is that you singing as well? Just a great sound.

Thanks. The "2Guyz..." music was written by me and was sang by Chris my bandmate. After taking a year off we're working again... this time on ambient pop chill kind of stuff.

The https://soundcloud.com/scott_pfeil I do sing a few there: "Another Broom", "I Saw You" and "When We're Together". I myself am fairly eclectic so... ;)
