The song by Lovell's Flooded Cellar is simply and aptly titled, "April in Maine". The month that can't seem to make up it's mind. One day it's 70 and the next day it's 50.
It appears we've survived another winter. Now it's time to endure that soft, sinking transition from cold weather to warm weather with this funny song from Lovell's Flooded Cellar band.
It's called "Pounded." No, it's not a song about being in a bar fight or swinging hammers. We already told you that it's about the drudgery of Maine winter.
The Flooded Cellar boys hilariously lament the stinky business of making sure the house stays warm when the fuel is all gone. "Oil tanks empty and I'm low on cash so I gotta go make that Diesel Dash!"
Flooded Cellar made a music video for a funny song about battling with that beat-up, old snow blower. "Yankin' the cord, but it won't seem to fire." We've all been there.
It's called Teardrops on the Ivy and beautifully expresses the fear and worry families members experience when a loved one is far, far from home in harm's way protecting our freedoms and defending our country.
We Mainers all have our own cherished memories of the yearly traditions of going to the fair. That's why it's likely that many of us are bummed that it's not going to happen in 2020. One of our favorite local bands feels the same way.
These boys also like to stroll through the tall grass in wide open spaces and hike the wooded trails. Along with these nature loving excursions of course comes the threat of terrible tiny beasts...Friggin' Ticks!
This time around, Dennis Barker has gone solo as a result of social distancing. His latest work is a plea in response to a struggle that's not just specific to Maine, but for all of humanity.
Local band Flooded Cellar hail from beautiful Lovell, Maine over there on Route 5 in Oxford County. They just made a new music video for a funny song about battling with that old snow blower.
This music video is a tribute to all the hardened Yankees like you who bust their asses getting the wood ready. It's called, Six Cords Shy of a Broken Back and it hilariously laments the "seven month haul" that is winter in Maine.
Our buddies in the band, Flooded Cellar released a new video today on YouTube and if you're a wicked Mainah (as if you ain't), you should see it. The song is called Inside Maine's Outdoors. We gotta warn ya, it'll be stuck in your head after the first listen.
They call themselves Flooded Cellar. When the warm weather finally arrives each year, they enjoy fishing on Kezar Lake. Of course, along with these nature loving excursions comes the threat of terrible tiny beasts...Friggin' Ticks!
It's by fellow local laborers and moonlighting musicians, Flooded Cellar from Lovell. We've featured their wicked funny songs about everything from tick checks, to stacking wood, mud season and more. They get us, because they are us!
