With the Steadman's Wake Acoustic EP, the Connells reinterpret four songs from last year's much heralded return album in a fashion that is closer to how Mike Connell originally wrote them.
"When I am working on a new song, typically I sit down with an acoustic guitar and flesh out as much as I can while the idea is still fresh.” Mike said. “With these versions we tried to cut a little closer to the bone in terms of the recording and arrangement while still capturing the spirit of the band."
Recorded at the bands practice space by long time live engineer Tim Harper, the EP highlights the immediacy of songs like "Steadman's Wake" and "Song For Duncan" without losing any of the emotional punch that critics and fans loved about the original versions.
Track List:
1. Steadman's Wake (Acoustic)
2. Song For Duncan (Acoustic)
3. Fading In (Hardy) Acoustic
4. Helium (Acoustic)
