A New Backing Track For “Snowbird”

The beautiful tune “Snowbird” was written by Canadian singer-songwriter Gene MacLellan. Though it has been recorded by many performers, it is best known through Anne Murray's 1969 recording, which was released as a single in 1970. I used Anne Murray's recording as a template to make my backing track in the keys of G and A for your preference. Enjoy!
To make this backing track I used MIDI for the bass, drums, piano and keyboard. I used real audio loops for the tambourine and shaker.
