Nelsonville, WI, USA

midwestern folk

Liner notes

A midwestern folk song echoing the rushing waters of the Tomorrow River and the turning wheels of the Rising Star Flouring Mill. The lyrics tell the story of Jerome Nelson's 1855 dam and the Norwegian immigrants who built their lives around the local creamery and lumber yards. Acoustic guitars and a steady upright bass capture the quiet, enduring spirit of this small Portage County village.
