Chatsworth
Liner notes
A sparse, acoustic folk song with gentle vocals about the tiny, fading community of Chatsworth, Iowa. The lyrics speak to the quiet memories of a town platted in 1882 near the Big Sioux River, where only a handful of homes remain. It captures the isolation and enduring peace of the rural Midwestern landscape.
