(Folk Rock, Acoustic, Country, Blues) The Squirrel Hillbillies - The Squirrel Hillbillies - 2012, MP3, 320 kbps

From deep within the urban forest of Pittsburgh's East End, the Squirrel Hillbillies often emerge to share their eclectic repertoire of acoustic folk, country, and blues featuring guitar, ukulele, mandolin, percussion, and vocal harmonies. The duo regularly infests venues around town—with recent appearances at the Pittsburgh International Children's Festival, Calliope's "Emerging Legends" concert series, the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh's Sunday Afternoon Music Series, and SongSpace at First Unitarian—and tours regionally. Their debut CD of original songs was released in September 2012.

Through a collaborative, non-linear songwriting process, duo partners Jenny Wolsk Bain and Gary Crouth draw from personal experiences, third-hand stories, and vivid imaginations to craft songs that are unpredictable and quirky yet widely accessible.
All songs written and arranged by the Squirrel Hillbillies. Tracks recorded using a Rode NT1-A mic, Apogee Duet interface, Logic Express software, and a MacBook, and mixed with Pro Tools. Mastering by Wilkin Audio. Replication and packaging by Oasis Disc Manufacturing. Original watercolor paintings by Bill Vrscak.
