Long Gone Out West Blues (Released February 5, 2013)
Our second duo album. 13 tracks of beautiful songs and vintage-style harmonies, played on vintage and hand-built instruments. Recorded by Ivan Rosenberg, mixed and mastered by David Travers-Smith.
Our first duet recording. Banjos, acoustic, and National guitar with dreamy vintage roots vocals on original and '20s through '50s songs. We loved making this recording with Ivan Rosenberg in Portland.
