about

"The task we've signed up for — jumped like possessed salmon fighting the upstream current — is a full cover of Dreaming My Dreams, Waylon's landmark 1975 record.

Out of our league? More like trying to convince a Texan that Rhode Island has more geographic mojo than them.

Yet that is the magic of creativity: when fear becomes the starter log and sheer love of the material turns to gasoline. And somehow we did it.

Music is both a universal medicine and a time warp. 1975? 1995? 2022? The present? It all blurs and blends and stays there behind the eyelids, deep in the heart and marrow. Please receive this record as it was intended: as a tribute in every sense of the word, to the hardscrabble glory of Texan music and to those it continues to touch every day."
