What a crazy project this has turned out to be, and absolutely worth all the effort! Thank you so much to everyone who contributed, we've really created something cool and unique here. Playing a "song around the world" is no easy task. Everyone has to be on the same page, or rather the same beat, and trust that everything comes together well in the end. But after over two months from recording the initial "scratch track" to the final master, we can finally show you the finished product... Enjoy!

To play a song around the world, that was our aim. And although our first attempt isn't perfect, it was a lot of fun and we learned a lot! After traveling with Marlene & Lukas (https://www.instagram.com/radreisender_rosmarin/) in Turkey for a month last year, and discovering our common love for music, we really wanted to record a song together again, even though we were on opposite sides of the Earth. Once the initial recording was done, it turned out that Marlene & Lukas would come to Mexico short notice, so we were actually able to record the ending together while meeting up in Teotihuacán.

Our second original song, recorded while wildcamping in Baja California, Mexico. We will try to do a better mixed "studio" version of this at some point.

We, but especially Tobi, were very excited when the new RHCP album "Unlimited Love" came out end of last week. The Chili Peppers are Tobi's favorite band and covering a new song from their latest album felt like a great thing to do. "It's Only Natural" is one of the songs that immediately got stuck in our heads after our first listen of the new album, so we decided to give it a try.

We thought it would be a nice idea to play this iconic song in front of the Buddy Holly Center in Lubbock, Texas!

As we were stuck self-isolating in a motel for a few days, after testing positive for Covid, we thought we might as well use the opportunity to record this song (with a croaky voice!). Unfortunately Louisa wasn't feeling good enough to sing along, but was kind enough to hold the tabs.

After recording our first original song "Lean On Me" a few weeks ago we were inspired by Simon from "Gone Cycling Adventures" https://www.gonecycling.com/ to re-record it. Simon, and his wife Lucy, are also currently cycling around the world and have a fiddle (violin) with them. We spontaneously met in Istanbul, after writing on Instagram, and decided to record this version together. Thanks Simon for the amazing violin part! :) Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/chainsandchords Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chainsandchords/ Check out our Website: https://www.chainsandchords.com/

This is the second of the two recordings we did together with Marlene & Lukas in a park in the Turkish city Çanakkale. While "I Will Follow You into the Dark" was the more serious one, this was definitely the "fun" one. :D Please excuse the "out-of-focus" moments. Unfortunately our camera is not the best when it gets a bit darker! As with the first cover, this was after a quick rehearsal so don"t expect something perfect, just something fun. ;) Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/chainsandchords Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chainsandchords/ Check out our Website: https://www.chainsandchords.com/

This is our first original song that we want to share with you! We actually wrote this song a few months ago already, but put it on the shelf until now. We hope you like it.
