We help artists tell their stories, and in return, they help tell ours. Thanks to Tape Op editor in chief Larry Crane for narrating the โ€œDirt Floor Minuteโ€.

โ€œMy last release was made alone in my basement studio, and while I was wholly satisfied with that EP, I longed for the kind of collaborative experience and overall sonic quality that can take the music to better, and often, higher places. That's why I ultimately reached out to Eric. I knew it needed his musical sensibility and incredible talent to do take it to another level.

We ran through a few ideas, then Eric quickly arranged and developed parts. His intuition for the essence of the song and the voice of the songwriter is simply incredible. So many times heโ€™d come up with a part and Iโ€™d laugh to myself, โ€œYES, thatโ€™s exactly it!โ€ Iโ€™m really looking forward to working with Eric and the DF team again; the songs look forward to it too.โ€ American Elm
