DEANIE RICHARDSON & KIMBER LUDIKER
“New Camptown Races”
DESCRIPTION:
Deanie & Kimber’s “New Camptown Races” shows off their powerful creativity and impeccable execution. With pure talent, the track’s 3+ minutes race by in kaleidoscopic fashion, right down to the brief “breakdown” that signals the performance’s finale. The duo played the song together last year and knew it had to be featured on the upcoming album.
