about

This song was written by Susannah Masarie. This song is my song about the mountains. My love of the mountains comes from my upbringing in North Carolina. I am originally from Greensboro, I spent my summers growing up in Brevard, and I lived in the Boone area for four years. This song was written on one of my many trips to the North Carolina mountains. Music has been a part of my life from an early age, I was born into a musical family so it isn't surprising that I became a guitar playing, singing songwriter. There is a long history of traditional music that has come from the mountains, I have been greatly influenced by and appreciate that tradition.

Paul Dunaway recorded Doug and Susannah playing the song live in a cabin in the North Georgia mountains.Steve Baird recorded and mixed his drum tracks in Atlanta, GA. Josh Golden recorded Bill Fleming's pedal steel tracks in Downright Studio in Atlanta, GA. The song was mixed by Steve Baird and Miguel Scott. The song was mastered by Miguel Scott at Tree Sound Studios in Atlanta, GA.

The song was included in a compilation cd project called "Thirteen Tunes for Thirteen Moons". This cd was the idea of Bill Fleming and was inspired by the Charles Frasier novel "Thirteen Moons". The cd features the original songs of ten different songwriters, it was released in 2014. I am honored that Bill thought my song would be a good fit for his project.

This is a different mix of the song than what was on the Thirteen Moons project.
