Audubon
Liner notes
Write a heartland country song about Audubon, Iowa, where the shadow of Albert the Bull watches over the rolling fields. Sing about the long walks down the T-Bone Trail and the quiet pride of the Art Deco courthouse standing tall in the town center. Let the lyrics reflect the deep agricultural roots and the enduring spirit of a community named for a famous naturalist.
