Longtime friends and collaborators Patrick Dethlefs and Paul DeHaven (Heavy Diamond Ring Paper Bird) hailing from Denver and Santa Fe respectively decided to meet halfway for a songwriting residency at a yurt in the mountains of Northern New Mexico. Armed only with their guitars a cooler of vegetables and a shared passion for storytelling through song they embarked on a creative journey that would birth their debut duo record. Over three days in June the duo wrote eight songs. In October they visited Mark Anderson at the Cowboy Cowabunga ranch and recorded the songs to 8 tracks 1/2 inch tape capturing the essence of their musical camaraderie and the spirit of their friendship in every note. A spirit of spontaneity and gaiety permeates this breezy collection of songs exploring territory that feels at once new and familiar an expression of their individual journeys that could only have come to fruition together.
Bar opens at 5 PM and happy hour from open to 7 PM. (21+) The Velvet Elk Lounge does not allow minors - No Exceptions.
