Granny (song)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Granny is a song by Virginia jam band Dave Matthews Band. Though never released on an official studio album, Granny was dropped from the Under the Table and Dreaming sessions. This song was originally intended to be their first single. The song does not use LeRoi Moore or Boyd Tinsley on their respective instruments because the song is focused around a guitar melody without accompaniment. The song also features very sparse use of Carter Beauford's drumming throughout the main section. However, the final section of the song includes the repition of the lyrics "Love...Baby..." where many members of the band sing at the same time. The song still remains popular on live setlists to this day and appears on some live albums by the band including Listener Supported, The Central Park Concert and The Gorge. The song is approximately four minutes in length.
