Local songwriters Ken Wilson and Larry Goodwin perform some amazing original acoustic music that is truly Americana! The duo's repertoire includes songs about taking a back road home, a miner's request to "bury me far from the coal mine with a tombstone of #9 coal," a talking flag at the General Store, a cowboy's last trail, a redheaded darlin' from Harlan, and the soldier who "came back in 004, to no home, no family and no parade."
