Rock Eupora released an amazing record today. We made it last summer and it was really hot but insanely fun.

So excited to see that is nominated for album of the year alongside some other incredible records. This record is really important to me in a lot of ways. The songs on this record are devastatingly beautiful and human. They were written by Mary with veterans about their experiences serving in our military. This is also the first record I engineered and mixed for/with (still have no idea why he trusted me to do this). Listen to this record if you haven’t already.

So happy for my Birdtalker fam, go be quiet for four minutes and listen to their single 'One' today. It's on Spotify, but buying music is pretty tight too. This record was so much fun to make and it shows in the recordings.

“New York-based singer-songwriter Bill Scorzari transcends titles like songwriter or poet. He catapults past categories into a dark, ruminative, and ultimately life-affirming realm where family folklore, memories, pain, prayer, and incantation meet.” --Acoustic Guitar Magazine. Scorzari, a prolific songwriter, has taken his craft to new heights and deeper depths with his 4th studio album, THE CROSSWINDS OF KANSAS, which will be independently released on August 19.

To the musicians WILL KIMBROUGH, Dan Mitchell, Fats Kaplin and to Dean Marold who not only has played Bass on every one of my albums, but also did a fantastic job in this video! To Dylan Alldredge at Skinny Elephant Recording for engineering the album. To Dean Marold, Kristian Dambrino and Colter and Quincy Britt....wow, wow, wow. ...You all brought it. The crew in Ottawa Jess Turner and Anna Della Zazzera. To Jeff Fasano Photography and Joshua Britt Art for the photos and Steve Bloor Media Productions & Promotion for the single artwork.

Sending you all my love.🙏 🐝 ❤️

Ragged Queen - video coming soon

The story behind it #2

I took out my guitar at the b&b and started noodling around with chords and a melody, and it turned out it perfectly fit the mood of the first few lines of Ragged Queen. I guess the intro melody came from a same source in space as the words the day before, it was just there and I loved it...

************

Auf dem Sofa des B&B’s sitzend und mit Gitarre in der Hand spielte ich mit Akkorden und einer Melodie rum. Die Klänge unterstrichen irgendwie die Stimmung der ersten Zeilen von Ragged Queen. Wahrscheinlich entsprang die Intro-Melodie derselben Quelle irgendwo zwischen den Sternen wie die Worte tags zuvor, und ich liebte sie...
🎥 thank you so much Neilson Hubbard Joshua Britt from neighborhoods apart and 🎙️ Skinny Elephant Recording
