If you’re looking for some new things to listen to, we recorded a version of “Reason to Believe” which is featured on a Nebraska tribute album that came out last month. Go check it out along with Spirit Family’s cover of “Johnny 99”. We had the pleasure of recording a 78 Project this summer, and The BBC was there to cover it…. The project posted the video and A Cappella version of “How Can I Keep From Singing”. We’ve also been working on a whole bundle of new songs, and are excited to try a few of them live on this tour….
Look forward to seeing you all very soon.
