It's the end of this series of songs. I wanted to do Beat Up Guitar because it's about a musician, his instrument and the city," explains David Uosikkinen. "And for me, that's what it's all about. Jim Boggia's voice brings this Philadelphia anthem to another level. I have always wanted to play with Jim, and having him as part of this project has been a real gift."
