Tourist by The Second Wife
Recorded at Jerry Kee's Duck Kee studio. Starting in June 2014, Reese sent her stripped down acoustic songs to Chuck Garrison, Dave Perry and Bob Wall. We all went into the studio a few weeks later nary a practice, played 4 of the songs and then did the other 5 a month later. Vocals, BG Vocals, Guitar, Lap Steel, Organ, Tambourine and Shaker overdubs were done throughout the year, with Reese having 2 surgeries in the meantime.
Mixed by Jerry Kee, Reese McHenry, Bob Wall and Dave Perry. Mastered by Nick Petersen. Layout by Steve Oliva. Put out by Potluck.
Special thanks to Bob Wall, Steve Oliva, Chuck Garrison, Jay Kutchma and Josh Lind.
All songs written by McHenry, except The Second Wife by Feierman

As I was recovering from a heart problem, I amassed a huge amount of songs. I asked the best and most versatile musicians I know to help me make a record. Bob Wall (Razzle) played guitar, Dave Perry (Jett Rink) played bass, and Chuck Garrison (Superchunk) played drums. Chris Gilchrist (Shipwrecker), played lap steel and Caitlin Cary (Whiskytown),
did background vocals. It's called Tourist.
