Mike’s acoustic guitar is a Hurlburt #2, built by Ken Hurlburt in Cortland, NY in 1980. I’d love to know if he ever made more.

Dedicated to Lorel, Jordan and Amelia

Thanks to:

• John Wright, for not only producing the whole project, but also acting as therapist, arranger, engineer, and spirit guide. And of course that beautiful bass playing.

• Steve Lehto & Matt Jacobs for helping express these songs the way they needed to be heard. What a thrill to work with the two of you.

• Elijah Deaton-Berg for the brilliant and near-telepathic engineering, which really contributed to creating the most beautiful versions of these songs.

• Ellis Delaney and Alasdair Fraser for your beautiful artistic additions.

• Carrie Newcomer for the ongoing encouragement and friendship. I sent each of these songs to Carrie before anyone else heard them.

• Annie Capps for so many things: practical songwriting help and for acting as the glue between the big songwriter community in southeastern Michigan.

• Stephen Fearing, Mark Erelli, Kenny White, Jesse Winchester, and Chris Smither for providing more inspiration than I can ever describe. Your work lives on in these songs. And thanks to the dozens of other musicians and writers I’ve had the privilege to know and work with over a long career. I hope that these songs can inspire other songwriters to keep the magic going.
