The Pianimal: Episode 1 – Tom Waits Covers

The Pianimal is a bi-weekly, one-take, four-song, piano-based podcast, each song chosen to suit a new theme each episode. In the debut episode, I brandish my fingers, dust my ivories, and polish up my vocal cords to deliver a performance that critics are calling “lackluster” and “a good start.” The theme is Tom Waits Covers, and here are the songs I chose this week:

  1. New Coat of Paint
  2. Big in Japan
  3. San Diego Serenade
  4. All The World is Green

Episode 1 was recorded live in Vancouver, BC (well, technically, Burnaby) on Monday, August 25, 2008.

Next episode’s theme is 90s Pop Songs, which is sure to make you fall in love with the Backstreet Boys all over again. Future themes you can look forward to include Miserable Sap (consisting only of the saddest songs ever), Duets With My Wife and the completely unplanned Improv Night.

    I can’t listen because I’m at work, and then at home I can’t listen because my internet sucks, but I read it just for your writing. Dear Mr. Gilbert, please write more. Sincerely, Veronica.
