Brad Carlin Stuck in the Middle With You (stereo version)

During the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s been so hard for musicians to get together and play. However, many bands and other performing groups have gotten by with programs like Acapella, which enable combining multiple video tracks into a single video for online posting. Such platforms are also great for making demo videos for bands to build upon.

Here is such a video of me performing all the parts on “Stuck in the Middle With You”, by Gerry Rafferty. The famous line, “clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right” inspired me to “cast” the two backup singers as the Clown and the Joker, respectively. It was also fun to add a surprise trombone solo at the end as well.
