California Sober - Billy Strings acoustic cover

A song about sobriety for all you dry January maniacs!! I heard this song last year on the radio in North Carolina and it has become a listening and playing regular of mine. It’s a great, fun song with some outstanding playing on it. Not by me I should add - I watch Billy Strings play with my jaw on the floor, he can pick a guitar like no one I’ve ever seen, I’ve just figured out the chords so I can play along.

Recorded in our apartment in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The city view behind is the view from our bedroom, the Landmark building is the tallest building in the city and lights up like that every night at 6pm.

The guitar was ‘borrowed’ by our hosts for me from the school they work at, it has a hefty crack in the body and some seriously old strings but has done the job for me for the last month.

Played in the key of G - standard tuning.
