The Long Winter, Vol. 2: Under the Influence - Covers (2009)


I learned how to play guitar and write songs by listening to old blues, country and folk recordings. These are the first songs I learned how to play. I've also included some newer recordings of my favorite songs from more recent influences such as Leadbelly, Townes Van Zandt and The Carter Family.
