Hey gang... The first sneak peek at "Chase the Western Sky" is now available here: www.myspace.com/gregadkinsYou can listen to the first 2 tracks from the album which are "Old Radio" and "My Own Worst Enemy". Enjoy and let me know what you think! Remember that the sound quality on myspace is kind of sucky the way they compress everything but it's a good way to get a little sample out to a lot of people. Okay, go listen! - Greg |

Greg - they sound great... when you said Americana, I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quicker tempo & cello player on Old Radio... definitely could tell it was the same guy from the OtR disc  I liked the treatment on My Own Worst Enemy... I honestly did not connect much with the demo but it dressed up real good  [to borrow from Alligood... btw, finally got his album too, tis fantastic]. Anywho, enough about others, let's talk about you... I can't wait to hear the finished product! Sean |

thanks for the kind words Sean. Yeah, I always knew "Own Worst Enemy" would dress up well... the way we recorded it is about the way I always heard it in my head. It's tough out on the road when it's just you and a guitar!
It didn't work out with the fiddle player from OtR... he was extremely difficult to get nailed down and I was running out of time so we went with another guy who was at least as good and maybe better. Joe Ebel is his name... cool guy and a monster player.
glad you liked the Alligood record... one of my favorites from last year for sure. Arthur is just great.
And Sam, that was my attempt at the sound of crickets... I would have done tumbleweeds but i don't know what they sound like.
- Greg
