about

This record got started in 2002 when we received word from the Canadian filmmaker Ron Mann. He had recently been at a non-violence training camp in California where he caught wind of our c&w version of The Wall and he liked what he heard so much that he asked me to write a song for the documentary film he was currently working on entitled, “Go Further", featuring actor/environmentalist Woody Harrleson.
I wrote a few numbers and Ron ended using "Tumbler Ridge" and then also commissioned a version of “Yankee Doodle Dandy" to feature in the film.
So with the instrumental seed planted Jason Mercer, Megan Palmer and I set aside a few days in the steamy summer of 2003 to record the bulk of this cd in a little cabin around a couple of mics and generally in one or two takes. We were gearing up for a 3 month tour of North America at the time so when any of the Wrongs posse showed up we would have them add a bit of this or that to the mix. It felt good going down and it feels right right now so we hope you enjoy.
