Neosho
Liner notes
A midwest folk song about the resilient village of Neosho, Wisconsin, resting quietly along the Rock River and the old Mill Pond. The lyrics tell the story of the 1933 fire that tested the town's spirit and the hand-cast walls of the Old Village Hall that still stand today. Vocals sing of gathering at Marty's Sausage Haus and the enduring small-town bonds forged on Schuyler Street.
