about

In early 2014, Brian found himself wandering aimlessly about the country, listless, with no band. Barley Station had made an abrupt halt following the release of the DAMAGED GOODS album. On the darkest New Mexico night following transportation issues, he sat down with Las Cruces residents LaMarcus Drysdale and Dannny Crust and hashed out a few tunes in skeletal fashion. The beginnings of "Paper Goddess" and "Missionary Millionaire" were taking shape. The latter tune being co-written by Casey Wollberg but the idea in Brian's head that his co-writing friend should be a part of this. After much haphazard planning, Brian along with Drysdale, Crust and a pair of other desert musicians arrived in St. Louis to slowly hash out over the next 13 months what would eventually become a full album. FAR TO ROAM plays like a jam band record. The idea was to capture everyone in their most raw form. Songs were limited to 3 takes to prevent the sterility of over-rehearsing. Sometimes it's magic, sometimes it's tragic. The tunes, however, speak for themselves and speak to some fairly deep subjects, such as religious faith, romantic faith, faith in community.

In 2021, a bonus item was made available to those who purchased the album on Bandcamp. The music video for “Fallen” has been added.

This is one of my most listened to vinyl records - the songs just take me to a different place. The music as well as the lyrics are well crafted and want to make you listen over and over again. annikajaynefan

Be Blues/ The Devil Is Dead (EP)
by Portobello Express

supported by 6 fans who also own “Far To Roam”

This EP is just as awesome as the artwork and logo. The music is in the spirit of Janis Joplin, A Band Called Smith and Jefferson Airplane to give you a hint. The band backing up the fantastic lead vocalist Happy Betty is tight and very competent. Like the best of the 60s with updated sound quality! Pin Stripes Fan Account
