Innlandet Hestejazz Society | Moonshine Blends Vol. 2


Innlandet Hestejazz Society is a moniker that my good friend David Jønsson and me use when we are dj'ing around Oslo. Though to call it dj'ing might be an overstatement, we play records and have a good time. As crate diggers and heads we were drawn to the country-rock and the flying freak flags when we met behind the counter of a record store many years ago. Moonshine Blends are mixes of tunes we would have played in bars, but since we are confined to our own living rooms we are putting them up on the net for everyones pleasure. So tune in for some vibe-y west coast, hillbilly hobnobs, no-depression and blue collar country. Jerry Garcia, Johnny Paycheck and Jeff Tweedy hand in hand. Keep on truckin'!

Innlandet Hestejazz Society Moonshine Blends Vol. 2.




Well, the word "modern" isn't the first word that pops into ones mind while listening to this mix. With only two tracks released after 1974, you have the right to call me nostalgic. But hey, who isn't these days, right?

It's a soft start with Elyse Weinberg's classic "Houses", which may or may not feature Neil Young. To me, there is no doubt that he's responsible for those soaring guitar notes. After that, the mix goes all over the place. But these are all songs we usually play, and they have a freewheelin', feel good vibe that goes along great with a cold one.

Until next time, be well and be safe.
