Solid Ground - The Other Favorites

From our album "Naysayer" Available now on all streaming services and on CD: bit.ly/2It18qd
Recorded live on a VERY windy day near the Papakōlea Green Sand Beach on the island of Hawai'i.
Guitars are a Langejans FM-6 and a Journey Instruments OF310.
Recorded on a Zoom H2 with a Gutmann windscreen (the real MVP).
Filmed on a Canon Rebel T3i.
Special thanks to Kalani Souza for making this video possible.
Lyrics:
I've lived the life of a sailing man in a far off sea
I've held the hand of a sun-tanned girl on a bleach-blonde beach
Oh Barcelona, you're a sight to see
But my port of call's still years ahead of me
So don't ask questions of me
I ain't so young and lovely
You can see the cracks straight through my solid ground
You go to church on Sunday
I kneel before a different brand of soul salvation
It's a long way down
Swing low sweet Juliet, won't you take me back
Light up in your brother's truck with the seats laid flat
Two kids in the suburbs, Julie, why talk like that?
I'm a fool for you but I don't know how to act
(Chorus)
I knocked on the preacher's door with my head hung low
Cried out "won't you help me, god?" Ain't no one home
My absolution is this bag of bones
So I guess I'll keep on rattling down the road
(Chorus)

This is phenomenal. Always love seeing your work Josh and Carson - and this one is definitely on top of the list!

[@JoshTurnerGuitar]

Fender wow! Thanks so much!

[@user-qt1gs9pk8m]

[@Zigotoy_3234]

It's a declaration 💘

[@turn-the-way1148]

Whaaaaaat.....

[@steshaericabesanez1490]

Carson's voice ❤

[@freebets-UK]

The new Simon and Garfunkel. Won't be long before you break thru. Love it.

[@luizasedrim1]

the high five at the end. such precious people

[@almogchaim7943]

music minus the ego. love them

[@MrWobbles]

Will forever be perplexed by how the audio sounds the way it does. Past that, amazing video and one of the best musicians on this site

[@JM-nn9ed]

Didn't expect to see you here o.O

[@hogartz]

its simple: no walls = no problems. I've always loved the "outside" sound, rich clear and natural. Steve 'N' Seagulls - do the same.

[@jwingit]

yes no walls, but amazing how there is no wind sound

[@zodiacfever]

Struggles to make H2 sound good at home.. goes online and sees this bullshit

[@haleyblaismusic]

TOO stoked for the new album

[@TheBigDean18]

Michael Caine and Rick Moranis at it again!

[@rorystorm4284]

You must be my age.

[@MaghoxFr]

@@rorystorm4284 lol I got it too

[@wizzlet6821]

LOL

[@timlau3668]

Definitely use headphones listening to this! You won't regret it.

[@lorinctelkes1046]

thanks for the hint. a good one!

[@leeonardodienfield402]

Ocean sounds are subtle and nice.

[@CaptShane-sy7lr]

Has a nice James Taylor/Seals and Croft feel to it. Well done.

[@ParanormalShortStory]

You guys are so musically compatible it's amazing that you found each other. Lucky for all of us!

[@oakleyg2870]

Josh, if you go back over the past 10 yrs or so that I've been following your work (and commenting now and again), I was always on record as a believer that you would do great things in music if you kept after it. And you have exceeded even my highest expectations for what you would do with it. The art you put out both as a solo artist and with others keeps my faith alive that the trash that makes up the mainstream of the music industry today will not always be what tops the charts. And as long as there's music like yours out in the ether, people will seek it out.

[@jfgfhfaeweswff210]

You guys are so much better than almost anything out there right now. Real technique and harmony. Not much I hear these days sounds as tangible and raw as the the music you put out.

[@stevoschannel4127]

Michael Szymanek they ARE better than 90% of what's on u tube, 100% of all but oldies radio...

[@geneedwards5639]

I love this tune. It’s one of their absolute best!

[@josephtrionfero4512]

ENERGY! In the music, humans and nature. Brilliant!

[@3-dwalkthroughs]

Beautiful song and Aloha spirit too!

[@robinwilkins1968]

Listening to you boys tonight on my (gasp) 60th birthday. Just a joy as always. Love the venue! Keep making us happy, we love you.

[@jkxelor1295]

I am so glad I found you guys. You are super talented. Love it!! Keep it up!!

[@DanDaleyitpaystodream]

Captivating acoustic interactions and sweet vocal harmonies. Great job guys.

[@Sammaslammajamma_]

This is so good. It reminds me of Fearless by Pink Floyd. This is the kind of lyricism that deserves to be mainstream!

[@gregthayer2347]

I am a fan of your music and videos. Here’s a funny story: The other day I was driving through Ocean Beach in San Diego. The streets were loud and bustling, but through my left ear I heard “Solid Ground” streaming through. I looked over and realized it was coming from Winstons. I told my wife, oh my gosh, thats Josh Turner! So we pulled over and watched the rest of the show. Great show! Keep up all the good work.

[@PublicStellar]

Outstanding...

[@clairemarusin5635]

I can't believe this is ALREADY 2 years old! I swear it was just last month.... anyway, it's just amazing. Thank you both for amazing music and entertainment.

[@sofiablakey6454]

Carson and Josh are definitely the dinamic duo! Excellent combination!

[@bobf.5538]

[@bjoooon]

Great song, great performance!

[@jimajello1028]

Great beat! Very cool song. That Mike picked up the voices & guitars with very little background noise. Amazing that the guitars stayed in near perfect tune with the dampness that surrounded them. Well done.

[@peterlustig8988]

Greetings from Germany! I love Your music so much. Most of Your covers sound better than the originals and Your arrangements are fantastic. And, most of all, You are great musicians who can play any style. Dear Josh: I saw You first on KZbin in 2012 at the age 14 or 15 and I was astonished about Your very well developped guitar-playing and singing, solo or with Your very talented friends. It will always be a lot of Fun for me to watch Your videos. Good luck and thanks for posting Your art on KZbin!

[@joshfleischman8144]

I love when you two do videos together

[@natpiks]

Amazing, guys!!!!!
