CONRAD BURNHAM – The Sky Right Now #ERRREC037
This EP was recorded from April to July 2020 in the midst of the lockdown and protests in the United States. My wife and I attended the protests, and continue to support different causes including Trans Rights and BLM organizations.
This recording is a response to this period in time, but also an attempt to hold onto a form of sanity in the midst of all this uncertainty.
I would like to thank my wife Tara Cassady for support and
encouragement. I am also grateful for early feedback on the record from my parents, and friends Nelson Hallonquist, Albert Ortega, and Brian Kupillas. And lastly I would like to thank Bolanile and Gilles Mate for taking this project on.
