Tennessee Run

Vizztone Record VT-LJ010

2020

This recording has been a spectacular journey of kindness! Starting with Delbert McClinton’s invitation to his “Sandy Beaches” music cruise, resulting in Kevin McKendree’s request to record at the Rock House, leading right to Polly O’Keary’s direction to a Kickstarter program and a tidalwave of amazing backers and support.Finally, recording with the coolest cats & kittens of all time in this Tennessee vibe along with Laura’s home-cookin’ still makes me smile TODAY… and you can hear it in every song. So glad I made this “Tennessee Run”!
