Adel
Liner notes
A gentle folk song about Adel, Iowa, set to the rhythm of footsteps on the historic downtown brick streets. The lyrics reflect on the town's deep roots since 1847, nestled peacefully in the valley of the Raccoon River. Warm acoustic guitars and soft vocals capture the timeless charm of life along Historic U.S. Route 6.
