As a guitarist, I always considered the lap steel to be my second instrument. But over the last few years it really became my main thing. I just love the lap steel. This project started out as a little experiment to record one tune using only the lap steel. And that was my friend and producer Josh Van Tassel’s idea. I liked what we came up with, so I decided to keep going with the concept. We recorded a few more tunes, and it seemed like it could turn into an EP. Eventually I decided to go all-in and take on the challenge of making a whole album this way. Everything on this album was played on my Gibson Skylark lap steel Produced, recorded and mixed by Joshua Van Tassel at Dream Date Studio Additional recording by Christine Bougie at home Mastered by Reuben Ghose at Mojito Mastering Artwork and Design by Mike Roberts All compositions ©2016 Christine Bougie (SOCAN) ©2016 Christine Bougie Thanks to the Toronto Arts Council for supporting the creation of this music.
