Over the years, through many travels Earl has penned some of his observations of the people and places he has seen. Seven Songs, his debut album, is a culmination of some of those observations and experiences. From driving along lonely backroads passing through South Louisiana bayou towns, to witnessing trials and tribulations of America’s warriors coming home from battle and readjusting, to saying goodbye to his father-in-law, Earl has written of these places and of the people he has met along the way.
Recording this album was complicated by an unusual challenge – Covid 19. Earl and Iver found it impossible to record in the studio together, but, thanks to technology, were still able to record and produce this album from their home studios - Earl at Awesome Studios, Iver at his Awesome Studios East (see photos of our studios). Earl would record his tracks, send them to Iver, who then added his. The resulting composite/collaboration was passed back and forth for mixing and production, creating what you are now hearing. They are both amazed how well it worked!
