The exclusive version of Northern Winters

Ok, here it is – Northern Winters arranged for acoustic guitar and macintosh! I bet you’ve never seen anything like it :

[flashvideo file=»video/tvnorge-vnrds.flv» /]

Now, we do need to explain this performance. As you may know, The Vineyards is a band fully employed in the business sector and a lot of our texts reflects the hard and dull life of office work. Like we say in Texas Ranger:

«gotta make a living, that’s all I know, it’s time to work, let’s go, let’s go!»

or in The Alibi:

«but as the clock is ticking and the day runs out, I cross my arms, I’m dreaming of what life is about» … «I should be seated at the fireside, with a little velvet robe untied, but every time I try to unwind, I’ll be standing at the assembely line»

Now, that is what we call powerful lyrics! The hard office work require a lot of skills in how to lure the co-workers (and bosses) to believe that you’re actually working when you’re sitting at the desk. What they don’t know is that we are actually making music in our office hours while playing keyboard on our macs. This version of Northern Winters is a way for us to come clean to our co-workers and say that there is indeed a life outside the cubicle! Enjoy!

The Vineyards på Oslo TV

Be shure to tune in to OsloTV tonight as Kjartan and Hans Martin from The Vineyards will visit and play a very special version of Northern Winters from the new album.

This will be a one time only preformance of this edit of Northern Winters so do not miss it. We do not want to say to much about the gig, but the way it will be played will reflect our daily life as office workers and white collar bastards.

Update: You can se us at approx 17:50 and 18:50 on Oslo TV. The recording will also be available on the web tomorrow!

Café Moody

Every once in a while The Vineyards are lucky, and when we had our show at Café Moody in Haugesund last weekend we were lucky! The fine photographer Edgar G. Bachel showed up and took some amazing photos.
