Stub Lee’s single, Dyin’ by the Bottle

This instrumental is an ambient blues track that was a one-take recording session that just kinda vibed with me and I kept tweaking the track until I was happy with it.  

It tells a story that takes you through the journey of someone struggling with alcoholism. There’s a point where you might think the bottle has taken another life, or you might consider that there were angels that have saved that person. It’s up to you how you interpret the song. 

Listen, follow the song, and let your imagination lead you.

I played the guitar part on an ‘18 Squier Bullet Telecaster that I modded with Tex-Mex pickups.  It’s a simple, cheap guitar that has a good feel to it and the notes were just there the day I recorded this track. 

The blues is a story…really it’s many stories. Some are the same story told by many different people and some are personal and unique to each person. I think this song is similar to that.
