Liner notes
Write a rustic folk song about Amberg, Wisconsin, reflecting on its deep roots in logging and granite quarrying. Sing about the old Amberg red granite that built the town, and the historic town hall that still stands as a testament to the past. Mention the quiet beauty of Dave's Falls and the memories preserved in the old train depot and carriage house.
