Woozy
Released 2005
Produced by Dick Smith
Why "Woozy"? Well, y'know, the best hangovers are earned...
If you're the type who'd stick your hand -- no, your whole damn arm -- inside a hollow log in the woods, then plunk yer money down friend. Same wonderfully stringy grease with a li'l more organ, a tad more piano -- it's still raining but it feels good. Drunken mules, women's prison, the splitting of matter, death & sex & the Old Testament...if the brakes are out you might as well hit the gas.

Smoke Damage
Released 2002
Produced by Dick Smith
Picks up where the delightfully burnt-around-the edges "Swill" left off. Just plain hummable.
Still greezy, but with more seasonings. A little dark, but exuberantly so. Like a sunny night, or dancin' at a wake. More pickin', squeezin', slidin', slappin', and chortlin' than one can shake a stick at. So put down that stick and buy the damn thing.

Swill
Released 2000
Produced by Dick Smith
These 15 songs begged to be recorded live. In the basement. And so it was.
There's honky tonk (Heart Up on Blocks), prison balladry (Huntsville), south of the border lust-driven avant grass (Brown Dollar), murky swamp odes (Boats on Fire), gospel grass (Church of Yer Choice), and muchos more. A beautiful, infectious mess.
