Mauston
Liner notes
An upbeat americana track celebrating the lumber heritage of Mauston, Wisconsin. The singer tells tales of the old 1842 sawmill and the flowing Lemonweir River that built the town. Warm acoustic instrumentation and a steady drumbeat capture the enduring spirit of Mansion Street and the historic Bank of Mauston.
