Pearhead - Barefoot on a Gravel Road (2009)

This project grew from some simple guitar and vocal demos which were slowly layered with, well, just about everything. Kenny Parisot wrote all of the songs, sang lead vocals, and played guitar and banjo.

Pat produced and engineered while Daniel acted as associate producer and 2nd engineer. A small group of friends jumped in and played a little bit of everything and a good time was had by all.

Out of all this emerged a core group of contributors (Kenny, Pat, Jay, Dan and Ryan) who have continued to record under the Pearhead name. We have already begun the next album and have done some sporadic impromptu gigs.
