This CD is a collection of simple songs. They're all written and arranged by me. The musicians are all pickin' buddies of mine up in Alaska. They're assorted members of two of Alaska's best acoustic bands, Clark County (a traditional bluegrass band) and Moonshine Run (an acoustic jam band). I feel privileged not only to have them on the disc but also to have them as friends. That is what this collection is about. It is the people I have met, the places I have been, and the stories that have unfolded on the roads between Dalton, GA where I was born and Fairbanks, AK where I live now. Its roughly 5 years of travel, crossing the continent 8 times, thousands of people and countless miles condensed to 33 minutes, 10 songs and 7 musicians and 1 CD. Thus the name Appalaskan Folkgrass.
