THE WHEAT MOVIE

Some interesting projects that I squeezed in during the move include providing background music to a documentary made by William Wroblewski regarding local, organic, and heirloom bread wheat. You can view a clip of the documentary here at http://vimeo.com/26048870 and learn more at www. http://thewheatmovie.wordpress.com/

Historic Walking Tours with Edinborough Press

The Firesides also contributed the tune "Rosin The Bow" for historian Daniel Hoisington's city of Urbana IL walking tour. In 1860 Rosin the Bow was turned into a campaign song for Abe Lincoln--"Lincoln and Liberty, Too" A link to the podcast is here!

Finally, as The Firesides reunite this winter, look for a home duo recording coming soon. I hope to also play some country, honky-tonk and more old-time soon here in the Madison area.
