Here’s a new song about a contemporary right of passage, getting your first coronavirus test! I started writing it in the car on the way home, and finished it just before I got my results. You have to listen to hear them…

Sometimes songs come to you wearing the clothes of another tune. Folk process, I guess. This one arrived wearing a sporty John Prine set of chord changes. Given John tragically died of COVID earlier this year, it’s only fitting. So, thanks, John, for decades of inspiration and for these chords. Apologies for swiping them.

Bonus points to anyone who knows where they came from!
