Frankie's never coming home.Sonora, CA -- When most people think of art in Tuolumne County, images like  the Red Church come to mind, simple, wholesome images, views of our area that reflect our cultural past and our scenic beauty. Much of our local music is also reminiscent of days gone by, often reflecting an aesthetic that, though enduring, is hardly pushing the boundaries. These views seem mostly geared toward tourists. What about our current stories? This year local videographer Jessica Valentine produced a video for home town musicians The Nightshade Family, with both subject matter and images that reflect a more current side, perhaps a darker side, of Tuolumne County life. See video below.

Excerpts from "Frankie" lyrics

Standing down at the corner store,

He's a pornstar, he's a vagabond.

Courtney she was jail bait

From the neighborhood; She's a tag-along.

He makes good 

With the back woods

Trailer Mafia in Tuolumne.

He once said

I'm as good as dead

And I'll cook here

'Til it swallows me.
