Liner notes

A gentle folk song about Trempealeau, Wisconsin, resting quietly along the banks of the Mississippi River. The lyrics paint a picture of historic Main Street, where 19th-century buildings stand resilient against the test of time and fire. The acoustic guitar and soft vocals echo the peaceful Trempealeau Bay and the ancient earthwork mounds that watch over this river village.
