Here's the second video in the Deschutes River Recordings series, following their first entry with Fruit Bats' Eric D. Johnson. This one features Blitzen Trapper's Eric Earley covering the Band's "Up on Cripple Creek" in the inspiring natural surroundings of the Deschutes River in Bend. This video series captures Oregon musicians covering songs about rivers to raise money for the Deschutes River Conservancy, and you can donate and get the MP3 here. The series will continue with a Laura Gibson performance later this month.
