Ask Jim Probst about the genesis of ‘Creekside,’ his THROUGH the TREES instrumental tune heard in the music video above, and he doesn’t go on too long:
“Creekside doesn’t have much of a story to tell. I live next to a flowing creek. The song was written sitting on my deck next to the creek. I hope it evokes a sense of being next to that creek for the listener.”
For visual interest, we’ve added more than a few creeks and streams for your delectation, as the video’s still-imagery pans through woods and woodlands and this quite gorgeous song unfolds, performed by Jim on lap dulcimer and Ray Garnett on viola.
