‘A Few Crazy Days Each Year’ is dedicated to all members of SAMZEO (formerly The Family Nikoladze), a Leeds-based group of singers who performed songs from (the former soviet republic of) Georgia between 2006 and 2012.
I was with them in 2009, when we went to Tbilisi and, along with many other singers, dancers and musicians, took part in a short tour of the western part of the country.
5 years on, after hearing some Georgian music in Toronto, I was inspired to write this song and Balcony TV provided an opportunity to perform it. A big thank you to all involved in the process.
