Country Pumpkins – Fresh Picked
Fresh Picked is the title song of the new Country Pumpkins album. It is written and sung by lead guitarist, Rick Bamford. Other band members are Daniel Ostrosko on drums, Michelle Scobie on lead vocals and acoustic bass plus Graham Scobie on acoustic guitar, mandolin, harmonica and lead vocals.
Not only is the song freshly written about Australia’s involvement in the Vietnam War but Rick is also freshly arrived in the band. The title of the song cleverly mixes meanings between fresh picked vegetables and being conscripted into the army. Rick’s number came up in the lottery of life but he was fortunate in that he didn’t end up overseas.
Fresh Picked, the album, is available on most digital download platforms and copies of the CD can be purchased from www.scobie.com.au
You can find out when the Country Pumpkins will be performing, post lockdown, at the band’s page at www.facebook.com/countrypumpkinsband
