I borrowed a Gretch archtop guitar from Jenni Alpert for these sessions, which is what inspired me to get the '57 Harmony I now use as my main guitar. credits released December 5, 2005
Joel Eckels - vocals & guitar Dawn Thomas - backing vocals on "What That's About" and Little Brother Chris Lovejoy - percussion
