Hustisford
Liner notes
An upbeat folk song with warm acoustic guitars and lively vocals celebrating the quirky traditions of Hustisford, Wisconsin. The lyrics sing about the freezing New Year's Day Toilet Bowl football game at Fireman's Park and the town's deep German roots. It paints a picture of a tight-knit community gathered near the shores of Lake Sinissippi.
