about

This collection of tunes and songs represents some Creeper favorites, learned from a variety of sources over the years. We have been privileged to meet, play with and listen to so many old-time musicians and bands, and as we listen to the vast trove of music we now have at our fingertips, we are drawn to tunes and renditions that speak to us on some hard-to-describe level. In the track notes we gratefully acknowledge the musicians whose playing inspires and influences what you hear here.

The digital album includes a pdf of the cover art and track notes.
