Producer Comment
"I've known Summer since she was eight years old and followed her progress year after year. In my opinion, she is a new side of the 'Country' format and super strong. Through the years I've recorded with countless world-class artists - - Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson & the list goes on. I'm proud to have my name on this first, and great new album by Summer Schappell." - Ron Cornelius
