Singer-songwriter Mark Erelli has a brand new CD called 'Milltowns' due to be released on September 9. It is a tribute to his mentor, the late Bill Morrissey. All of the track except one were written by Bill. Erelli compares the process of creating 'Milltowns' to painting- "...you put something on the canvas, step back for perspective, then add another layer..." We will listen to each track this week on High Plains Morning.
