2022 saw Damian Calcagne with 5 Grammy considerations for his Hammond B3 playing as well as engineering at his NJ based studio, The PineBox. Damian and the PineBox have hosted projects for Grateful Dead founding member Phil Lesh, Andy Falco, Blake Chrisitiana (Yarn), Nadine LaFond, Dave Schools, Midnight North, Clare Maloney, Todd Sheaffer (Railroad Earth), Mari Byrd as well as Damian’s own projects DCB and Honey Straws. Damian’s earlier project, Swampadelica saw his song Mighty High rise to #2 on the Billboard Magazine charts, with several years of international airplay on MTV.

Featuring Elliott Peck on Vocals.
As one of the most sought-after vocalists on the West Coast, Elliott Peck has made a name for herself lending harmonies to everyone from Phil Lesh and Bob Weir to Jackie Greene and Reid Genauer. As a member of the band Midnight North, she’s appeared on bills with the likes of Bonnie Raitt and The Mother Hips and slayed festivals from Lockn’ to Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. We were lucky to have her on the East Coast in the PineBox to duet on this tune!

Bassist Johnny Grubb joined Railroad Earth in 2003 and spent 7 years with the group. By 2010 he had grown into one of the more visible members of the band. He appears on 2004’s The Good Life, 2006’s Elko and 2008’s Amen’s Corner.  From there Johnny went on to join the Emmitt-Nershi Band, and various other freelance projects, while spending more time at home in New Jersey raising his family.

Drummer Billy Mutchler has been a member of The Samples since 2003, and is a fixture on the New Jersey club scene. The groove on the PineBox version is fondly referred to by the band as “The Billy Way!”


Lyrics

I like green grass
I like blue skies
I like a full moon
I like brown eyes
I like red wine
I like sunshine
And I would like you to be mine
I would like you to be mine
I like to sleep all day
And make love all night
And then I'm alright
And then I'm alright

I like blue grass
I like blue eyed soul
I like the Blues Brothers
Well I like it all
I like to feel fine
I'd like some moonshine
And I would like you to be mine
I would like you to be mine
I like to sleep all day
And make love all night
And then I'm alright
And then I'm alright

Well alright
That's what I like
Alright
That's what I like
