Bio / Background
...this E.P is a collage of recordings i've done through out the year. some on my four-track, and others through the studio. One paper in San Francisco calls it "meloncholly and western tinged folk songs'...i guess i just call them songs. Jeb Bows helps me out on fiddle, and i did the other slide, banjo and guitar tracks. I hope you like it...oh, and theres another record i've been working on with my band, the freight. it should be out in the spring...
