Jim Ward <jimwardquiet>


After coming home from a long tour with my band, Sparta, I wanted to sit in my house and play acoustic guitar quietly. The tour had been loud and chaotic and I was simply trying to level out. I liked how things were sounding, so I began recording them in my studio.

These 5 songs are the beginning of what I hope will be an on going series of recordings, hopefully adding more and more friends to the fold. This volume has a few friends of mine adding some goodness.

On the song "On My Way Back Home Again" Ray Wallace of Secret Life of Sparrows (and my favorite tattoo artist/painter) played harmonica and sang back ups.

Chris Heinrich, who also plays guitar/pedal steel in my other band Sleepercar, adds some incredible Ukulele on "Coastlines".

And I was lucky enough to have the very talented Maura Davis of Denali and Ambulette sing with me on "Take it Back".
