Another tune directly out of my young life, Ollie Ollie calls back to a simpler time that SO many folks can relate to.
While visiting my good buddy, Gary, at his recording studio in Clarksdale, MS, he suggested we write a song together. I dragged out some notes about growing up in a small town, and we put our heads together and painted this portrait of small town living that will transport you right smack into the middle of the County Fair!
That session with The Millbillys sure was fruitful!
