This was the first project I recorded after setting up my home studio. It was a big undertaking, but I was happy to have the experience of doing a whole soundtrack for a really beautiful local project. My concept was to do mostly acoustic instrumentation and capture what I felt like was the “musical spirit” of Montana. I feel like with the big sky and open spaces, as well as the awesome stories of these Montana artists, it gives us the opportunity to feel a wider set of emotions so I tried to represent that in the music.
I played all of the instruments:
Acoustic and electric guitars
drums and percussion
electric and upright basses
banjo and mandolin

This is the trailer which wasn’t in the documentary that I produced, performed, and recorded all of the instruments for. It’s a jam.
