The Whiskey Sessions started when three old (by this point) musicians met to get reacquianted and drink som whiskey. The whole think quickly turned into a recurring even about booze, music, and on-the-spot creativity. We get together, pop the cork, and get cracking on writing a song. The goal is to compose, write lyrics, perform and record an entire song in a single evening, preferably before the neighbors start banging on the wall or the audio interface burns up.

We often mix and master when we've had a chance to sober up, but we are proud to challenge ourselves to achieve all of this in a short period of time. And it's a lot of fun too......

See below for music, lyrics and photos from each time The Whiskey Sessions have met, in reverse chronological order. Click on a title to see more information about that specific song, and please leave a comment. We hope you appreciate our music!

Honk Up The Bird (In The Haphne Hall).mp3 (mix: peen)

-lyrics

		 nu skall jag berätta va' som hände igår, yeah
		 sto' framför spegeln och fixa' mitt hår (mä brylkräm!)
		 ni kan tro jag va grann!

		 Limpan satt och tuta' i sin blå amazon, yeah
		 pepita-rutig å massor av krom (mä brylkräm!)
		 sen bar det av emot stan

		 vinkla in rutan och radion på
		 rock-n-roll feeling får pälsen å stå
		 som en blixt från himlen ett jädra gung
		 Limpan han gasa' å bandet de sjöng

		 Honk Up The Bird - on American Bandstand
		 Honk Up The Bird - it's a rock-n-roll weekend
		 Honk Up The Bird - and we go to Coney Island
		 Honk Up The Bird - in the Haphné Hall

		 på väg till parken för å dansa en sväng, yeah
		 Limpan vägra' dansa så det ble' bara häng (mä brylkräm!)
		 de e så de ska va!
		 det stod en puma å spana' på mig, yeah
		 fatta' mod, gick fram å sa hej (mä brylkräm!)
		 ska vi dansa en sväng?

		 klackar i golvet å skinnpajen på
		 rock-n-roll feeling, då kan det gå
		 som en blixt från himlen ett jädra gung
		 bönan hon snurra' å bandet de sjöng

		 Honk Up The Bird...

		 vi körde hem å hade flaggan i topp
		 me' varsin böna me' hyfsad kropp
		 tänk va stolta vi va!

		 Limpans amazon den spann som en katt
		 såg på varann å smajlade glatt
		 kvällen slutade bra

		 vinkla in rutan...

		 Honk Up The Bird...
		 

Mad had a bunch of inspirational songs from the 50s and 60s. Adam was drinking from some weird bottle in a brown paper compost bag. johno was wearing a very dirty shirt. Peen was the engineer.

Maria wrote some lyrics and Jonas did camera duty. The goal was to get a really compact vocal harmony and a nice boogie / swing feeling. We have no idea what the title of the song actually means, but it sounded good. But Limpan has an Amazon with racing stripes and is headed downtown...

(2011-02-10, 17:52) Jon(_X_) sa: Måste ju säga att Maria ser grymt porrig ut på flera av fotona här. Bra fotograf, eller var hon bara extra snygg denna kvällen? :P

(2009-12-09, 20:52) johno sa: jag är grymt nöjd med hela refrängen på denna! Nonsense-engelska FTW!
