“What to Make Of Me” from Olive Klug. Live on Western AF. We’re stoked here at Western AF to share this field recording with thee Olive Klug. They really knock it out of the ballpark on this one. As terrific as their album version of this song is, there’s something special coming from this stripped down rendition. The light peaking in through the windows and Olive’s amazing demeanor also adds to it! It also meant a lot to have them make the trip out to Wyoming to film this with us. Like so many influential songwriters, vividness in the lyrics and curve balls for hooks in the songs are what keep us coming back for more… and I dare I say, Olive may be on their way to becoming one of the most influential of them all. Thank you @laramieplainsciviccenter for letting us film in the building! #oliveklug #westernaf #fieldrecording

“Bitter Ender” | Mary Chapin Carpenter ft. Josh Kaufman We were lucky to spend some time with Mary Chapin and Josh up in Newport and capture something really special. This song feels bigger than itself, the imagery pulling you into a story you didn’t even know you needed. It has a way of landing somewhere personal for everyone who hears it. We’ll shut up and let the video do the talking. Check out all the moments we captured on the Western AF channel, link in bio and story. #marychapincarpenter #joshkaufman #westernaf #fieldrecording

We welcome Nora Brown to the Western AF Channel as she gently picks and sings the song “Bertie Mae’s Chilly Winds into her original tune known as Instrumental #1” Nora is out in the world putting a new spin and a calm, steady voice to traditional banjo tunes. Her music is story driven, simple, and rooted in the heart of Americana. This field recording feels like the kind of song you would hear passed down through generations. In a world where everyone is adding more and more to try to grab your attention, Nora is holding court with just a few chords. This version of Bertie Mae’s Chilly Winds (played on a Pete Ross @banjopete gourd banjo) was learned from Brad Leftwich. Bertie Mae was from Ennice North Carolina and born in 1902. Make sure you check out the entire video. Link in bio and story! #norabrown #westernaf #fieldrecording
