Studio Notes    

 


SONG INFO

Glycine: Conceived in open G minor tuning on lap steel. All chords are minor.

Trucker (Working Title): Idea arose when I was noodling on DADGAD guitar while watching the film Trucker.

Rio (Working Title): Bass tuned Eb-A-C-F# (capo 2) playing against a quasi-samba groove.

Drugstore Prints: A quick and dirty riff idea in an open G minor tuning on a dobro. It has a lo-fi 'cheap photo print' vibe.

Determined: Bass tuned EEBE initially, then played in standard tuning.
