Duluth ska duo Woodblind is releasing a new version of Teague Alexy's Working Man's Song as one side of their debut 7 inch record. "It always was a ska song," says Teague. "It just took me fifteen years to hear it."
Working Man's Song was one of the first songs Teague Alexy wrote on guitar. Though the sing-along chorus made it a fan favorite at Teague Alexy with Medication shows in the early 2000's, Teague had not performed the song live in over a decade. When ska duo Woodblind noticed Teague in the crowd at one of their shows this summer, they broke into their own jump-up ska version of Working Man's Song. Within a week Teague joined Woodblind in the studio to record the new version.
Teague handles the lead vocal while Jason Wussow and Veikko Lepisto of Woodblind provide contagious energy in the form of upright bass, guitar, background vocals and a healthy dose of 'ska box'.
Teague Alexy Band and Woodblind perform at Harriet Brewing in Minneapolis Saturday, January 24 at 7 pm. http://www.harrietbrewing.com
Woodblind's debut 7 inch Big Voice/Working Man's Song is available at Electric Fetus, CD Baby and ITunes.
Check out a stream of the new version of Working Man's Song:

"The moral is there are angels among us, so it's a good idea to be nice to everyone," says Teague Alexy of his first book - the rhyming folktale How Lefty Stepanovich Turned Water Into Wine. Published by Ivy Arts Press in Minneapolis, this first edition of Lefty Stepanovich is now available at Amazon.com as well as select independent book and music stores.
How Lefty Stepanovich Turned Water Into Wine is also available at the Duluth, Minnesota and Superior, Wisconsin public libraries.
Touching on the common themes of generosity, kindness and brotherhood, How Lefty Stepanovich Turned Water Into Wine also encourages critical thinking for both young and old. Filled with humor, ridiculous names and clever rhyme schemes, 'Lefty Stepanovich' is fun for kids and adults alike.
'"I will now provide proof and put to practice my pleasure-producing prototype."
The people were pleased as it pitter-pattered, popped, purred and pumped water through the pipes.
An audio version of How Lefty Stepanovich Turned Water Into Wine is coming soon! The audio version features Teague Alexy as narrator alongside an outrageous cast of characters including Nicholas David playing the role of the cantankerous Mr. Borkinszankersneer.
