By Jason Walsmith/The Nadas and Kyle Munson/The Register
This tongue-in-cheek tune was written as an alternate take on the current climate of caucus frenzy in Iowa – a satirical anthem of sorts. The process: Munson was seeking a local musician to produce such an anthem. Walsmith of Des Moines rock band the Nadas was game and suggested a title and melody. The pair hashed out the lyrics. Singer-guitarist Walsmith performed the song in the middle of the Des Moines Register newsroom/info center.
