Cast Iron Skillet - Jason Isbell cover

Been working a lot on this song, it’s pretty tricky with the picking and it had a lot of words that I haven’t quite completely learned, hence the glasses and the constant glancing at my laptop. It’s a really beautiful song, with great lyrics from Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit’s most recent Weathervanes album.

Recorded in Cologne, France about 45 minutes west of Toulouse on one of the final days of our housesit there.

The guitar belongs to the hosts Phill and Damien who happened to have it lying around. Despite a very dusty case the guitar was immaculate and barely played. The strings were like new. It’s a Vintage fully acoustic guitar and very nice to play, especially in their kitchen where the reverb and echo made for a nice effect.

Played in standard tuning, key of E.
