I didn't have a plan to share this tune on the first day of Spring but it's a happy coincidence. I've had the tune for a couple of months but it took a long time to settle on the final version. Plus the title was a problem. That was finally solved a few weeks ago when I saw this statue in Fayette, IA while driving south.
I guess the melody might seem a little somber for a bunny tune but I don't think of it that way. To me it's more of a warm and fuzzy feeling. In any event I really like the tune.
All of the guitar intro stuff just kind of happened as I was finally getting around to making a recording. I'm playing a recently acquired Martin 000 Jr-10 guitar which is super comfortable to play and sounds pretty good for a modestly priced instrument. It's maybe not the guitar you want for playing hard and loud and the bass notes don't ring out like a bigger box but it's good for this.
I hope that some of you enjoy this tune as much as I do. It's also a friendly tune to play.
Here's to Spring!
