Fingerstyle arrangement and guitar tab for Silver Joy, by American singer-songwriter, Damien Jurado. This piece is also the central musical theme of Alexander Payne's, The Holdovers.
Silver Joy was a perfect choice for The Holdovers. This song was used through the film as a motif. The simple E minor to F progression has a tenderness to it, without being too overly sentimental. When I heard the “Cat Stevens-like” tune in the film — I was convinced it was from an obscure 70’s folk artist. However Silver Joy is actually by American Indie-folk artist. Damien Jurado. The piece is from his 2014 album, Brothers and Sisters of the Eternal Son.
If you’re a fan of Alexander Payne’s films (e.g. Sideways, The Decedents) you’ll love The Holdovers. Paul Giamatti is truly immersed in the role, as a crusty middle-aged teacher. His character has become complacent with his environment and is physically and emotionally deteriorating — like a rusty car in a junkyard. Newcomer, Dominic Sessa has an incredible performance as Angus, a student, whose brash humor hides his own traumas. I know this sounds depressing, but the film is very funny and heartwarming throughout!
