Gilmore Girls, except its FUNK • Carole King Cover • Mischief Studio Series Charles Laurita & The Mischief 2021-09-21 | HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEGGIE! OK, so I'm going to be honest - I watched Gilmore Girls in it's entirety over the course of the pandemic, and I ended up really enjoying it. Completely unrelated, I was already a huge fan of Carole King and the Tapestry album, so when I had found out "Where You Lead" was the theme song to the show, I knew that I eventually had to write an arrangement for it one day. I truly love how this one turned out, and I hope you all do too! - CLOriginal song by Carole KingCharles Laurita - Vocals/Guitars/Bass/PercussionWill Sarver - DrumsCharlie Laurita - HarmonicaChandler Scales - Tenor SaxSean Joyce - TrumpetWill Caldwell - Bari SaxFilmed and Edited by Charles LauritaArranged by Charles Laurita Recording Courtesy of The Ratcave Produced and Engineered by Charles LauritaFOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA[PATREON] patreon.com/charleslauritaandthemischief[WEBSITE] www.charleslaurita.com[INSTAGRAM] @charleslauritaandthemischief[FACEBOOK] facebook.com/CharlesLauritaTheMischief#GilmoreGirls #WhereYouLead #LukesDiner
