I am releasing a new song on March 31, 2015, called “Wildfire”!
“Wildfire” (featuring award-winning, American bluegrass fiddler, Aubrey Haynie) will also be on my album coming out in the fall of 2015!
Drawing inspiration from the Carlton Complex Wildfires that swept through North Central Washington last summer, I wrote this song in an effort to capture what those smokey days were like: listening to the radio, hearing of the devastation tearing through neighboring towns, watching from the driveway as the fires burn down the mountainsides, evacuating your home, grabbing whatever you can pack in the car, seeing the trees on either side of the highway burnt and still burning, fallen power lines and closed roads, melted train tracks… And then that sound on your roof, after what seems like an eternity of waiting and praying: the sound of rain.
You can hear it on March 31!
