What do you get when you take a batch of incredible songs, five veteran players who have never played together, with an arsenal of five musical minds working in unison to reinvent them? Hard Working Americans are Todd Snider (vox), Dave Schools of Widespread Panic (bass), Neal Casal of The Chris Robinson Brotherhood (guitars/vox), Chad Staehly of Great American Taxi (keys) and Duane Trucks of Col. Bruce Hampton's school of music and Trucks family lineage (drums). Tracks include "Blackland Farmer" by Frankie Miller,"Down To The Well" by Kevin Gordon & Lucinda Williams, "The Mountain Song" by Kieran Kane, Chad Jeffers, Sean Locke, “Mr. President (Have Pity On The Working Man)” By Randy Newman and "Wrecking Ball" by David Rawlings & Gillian Welch
