ImageThis month at Trees we featured two orginal compositions by Blue Morris, "Blues for Carly" and "The Blonde On My Tail."

I spent months trying to persuade Carly to sing "Blues for Carly," which I wrote for her. You just have to hear it to understand her reluctance. It was well worth it! She sings it so well, now she's just going to have to sing it again! You can download it below. It's hilarious!

  • Blues for Carly (MP3; 6.5MB) Written by Blue Morris
  • The Blonde on My Tail (MP3; 4.2MB) Written by Blue Morris
  • Give Me a Kiss to Build a Dream On (MP3; 5.4MB)
  • Why Don't You Do Right? (MP3; 3.9MB)
  • 'Deed I Do (MP3; 6.7MB) Blue talks about jazz & committment
  • I Could Write a Book (MP3; 3.4MB)
  • Willow Weep for Me (MP3; 4.7MB)
  • Blue's Finale (MP3; 6.9MB) Blue leaves the stage for part of this jam to dance with some sweetie in the crowd.

    Since our last gig at Trees Cafe focused on the blues, this month we thought we'd play more up-tempo swing songs. It was great to see people lindy-bombing in the cafe again!

    Here's the copy we had on the poster this month:

    Blue Morris is the reclusive swing guitarist who has played in numerous bands but has now formed a swing and blues band under his own direction. Rumours have been spreading about the band, especially surrounding its very talented singer, Carly Jepsen. However, little is known of Blue, so we put our ears to the ground and asked around.
