DESCRIPTION: The American folk classics which comprise Americana have no doubt inspired many. Neil Young's distinctive songwriting has influenced me as a singer-songwriter, and his battles with sickness inspire me in my own struggle with illness. In fact, I chose "Wayfaring' Stranger" because its message of perseverance and hope speaks to me. It also holds special meaning for me because Tennessee Ernie Ford's rendition of it was my mother's favorite song as a child. I recorded this song in a home studio with my band.
