This video is causing a bit of a buzz online: Chris Feener plays the familiar notes of the Ode to Newfoundland (familiar, that is, to those who live here), but with a metal arrangement. Stick around for a medley that also includes Saltwater Joys and the Mummer's Song, as neither Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers nor Simani have played them. (And then, like a tonic at the end, Chris plays the Ode on an acoustic guitar.)
