Songs For Matthew

12 April 2010 Peter Broderick and Jedadiah Bernards (mp3)

From flickr: "Jedadiah Bernards is old friend from my hometown. We don't really know each other that well, but the last couple times I've been back in Oregon, we've gotten together to do some recording. Last night after a dinner with family and friends, we went up to the barn and recorded a quick song. He layed down a short piano piece he'd written and then I added four layers of improvised violin."
