about

All copies of Bad Debt are currently SOLD OUT.

Bad Debt comes from ten dense acres of oak, cedar, and apple trees in Pittsboro, North Carolina, directly south of the Haw River. The house where it was made was built in the early 1970s by a hippie cohort that settled along Brooks Branch; though this may sound like some kind of brag, I offer this to explain just how cold it was during the fall and winter when this record was conceived. Most hippies—except for the most famous one, of course, and probably a few others—are shit carpenters.

Bad Debt was written and recorded on a portable tape recorder at the kitchen table while my son—one year old at the time—was sleeping. It is about my God: That is, whether I have one, and whether there is a place for me in this world.

I don’t go to church and I am not saved. I can party too. I can do a saxophone now and again, bang the drum. Bad Debt was my revelation, and there are many for whom I’ll never make a record better than this one.

Bad Debt was mastered by Anthony Puglisi. Artwork was arranged and rendered by Brendan Greaves.
