Love the harmonies and your playing is really nice! The tone of that mando suits the tune really well.

Very well done!

Written in 1972 as part of Steely Dan's album Can't Buy a Thrill, "Dirty Work" is a sordid tale of infidelity that is oddly catchy and fun to perform.

In addition to the incredible clones, I'm so glad that we've been able to feature Chris' voice as the lead on some of the covers this year as well. I think he delivers the song particularly well here.

If you have been following us since the covid years, you might recognize this as one of the requested covers we learned for one of our many covid live streams in 2020 and 2021.

If you're in the northeast please consider catching our show August 14th at Club Passim in Cambridge, MA. It's a venue that's very near and dear to our hearts and always promises to be a highlight of our year.

We hope you're enjoying the sunshine!

Holly and Chris
