Nick Shoulders & the Okay Crawdad - Rather Low *Official Video*

Details

Description

In winter of 2020, I planned on taking a cellphone on tour and making a music video out of our new song, Rather Low, which had just been self released from my bedroom in New Orleans. I obviously never played those tours, nor the tours after them, but from the folks willing to put the 'punk' in Podunk, we bring you evidence that the open road can be rewarding and wonderful (despite the song being about the exact opposite). Featuring a rotating cast of Crawdads, this was shot during our southeast tour in December 2021 and represents how our shows and tours have felt entering live music anew (after such a profound hiccup in our roadbound careers). Thanks a billion to Wyatt for selling merch and driving, Grant for playing the hell out of the bass and singing better than me, Cheech for being my favorite drummer on earth and our guardian, Jack for bringing true chaos forth unto us, Sasha for bringing fiddle to the crawdad arena so hard, Nikolai for positively raging on steel, Kurt and Gar Hole for keeping us afloat, Chooch for still making noises with me after a decade of trouble, Jesse for booking the damn shows and big shout out to Caspian (of Scissorbills, Chardonnay, Black Bird Raum) who plays guitar on the original recording, listen to his tunes. Riley Downing and Todd Day Wait make appearances and are worth listening to also! Plus Jack Studer is our guitar lord and a killer songwriter who has a new album out. Miss you Chris!!
