Liner notes

A reflective indie folk song about Ames, Iowa, where the Skunk River winds past the historic brick storefronts of Main Street. The lyrics capture the spirit of a bustling college town, referencing the shadow of Beardshear Hall and the roar of Jack Trice Stadium on a crisp autumn day. Vocals sing of the trains that first brought life to the Cedar Rapids line, blending acoustic guitars with a sense of Midwestern nostalgia.
