A collection of all original songs with words and music by Rob Birdwell. These tunes explore various flavors of folk and blues with lyrical twists, introspection and sly humor. Perhaps best known as a Jazz Trumpet/Flugelhorn player, Rob sings and gets some horn licks in too. This release marks his first recorded Mandolin explorations, which served to inspire the sound and production of many of the tracks.

1. Another Name For It
2. Something About This Town
3. That's Not The Way To Love Me
4. Old Mountain
5. We Did It
6. Danny Wore a Fisherman's Cap
