about

Rags Across the Sun was inspired by the 1970s outlaw country scene (watch Heartworn Highways if you haven't seen it!). It took a long time to make but it doesn't take a long time to listen to, so give it a spin.

This record doesn't discriminate. I made it for down days, up days, centuries of autumn, springtime frost, marathon runners and lacrosse bros, YouTube, galaxies of boredom, endless nights and long long summers, tambourine and timpani players of the world rejoicing in silent ecstasy when it's not their time to play.
