My View of Life on the Dock
All week long, gimmesound’s artist of the week Inge Berge, featured his new Sh*t Under Your Shoes video that we produced together.
But no salute to Inge would be complete without featuring his excellent protest song, Prison Nation, which Inge produced into a compelling, poignant music video. Check it out!
It’s a hoppin’ Saturday night on Cape Ann with 7 artists to choose from — DJ, Piano Bar, Classic Rock, Folk, etc. Get the lineup here
Well, he put it on a digital-only album that you can get on-line. But what Inge calls “old stuff”, we call it an excellent mix of songs from soulful solos to highly produced tracks in Inge’s inimitable style. Certainly worth a look. Check it out.
Plenty of music and dancing in Gloucester tonight. See full lineup

Thanks to Inge Berge’s vision, inspiration and all-night editing, we’ve got a treat for you this week. He growls like Tom Waits and bangs on household implements in this bitter breakup video shot in his home studio. Few songs express the pain we’ve all felt at one time or another as well as this one set to a catchy tune that will play in your head all day long.
Watch and listen carefully — you’ll see all the percussion in the song is from the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom.
