Tennyson
Liner notes
An americana tune echoing the deep mining history of Tennyson, Wisconsin, once known as Dutch Hollow. The song tells tales of the old lead miners who worked the Driftless Area hills and the modern locals gathering at Haverland's Bar near the junction of Highway 61. A steady acoustic rhythm and rustic vocals paint a picture of this resilient Grant County village along the Great River Road.
