These Houses

• Track Listing

2016 release. Daniel Boling's seventh album, These Houses, features sensitive, mature narrative songwriting, sparse, honest acoustic production (Jono Manson)and cameo appearances from artists including Bill Hearne, Jaime Michaels and David Berkeley. A 2014 Winner of the Grassy Hill Kerrville New Folk songwriter contest, Daniel is a balladeer/songwriter based in New Mexico and tours full-time throughout the U.S. and Europe. The title track honors pre-historic stone houses of the Anasazi scattered across the U.S. desert southwest where Daniel worked as a National Park Ranger. "Mama's Radio" remembers when winning a transistor radio was a mighty big deal to a Kansas farm boy. Anyone who's sorted through the trash and treasures collected over a parent's lifetime will relate to "Dad's Garage".
