Crowes Pasture recorded a 7-song EP of songs by and for Woody Guthrie. The duo covers six of their favorite songs by the legendary folk singer. "Belle Starr" is an entertaining and juicy tale about the notorious female American outlaw who lived in the late 1800's. "Forsaken Lover," a hauntingly beautiful love song, is a rarity in Woody's general repertoire of songs about injustice, poverty and desolation in America. Classic songs "Pastures of Plenty" and "Hobo's Lullaby" (written by Goebel Reeves) are performed by the duo with striking intimacy. "I Ain't Got No Home" and "Going Down the Road Feelin' Bad" are powerful tunes about hard times that have endured relevance today. The duo also covers "Song to Woody", a beautiful tribute song to Woody, written by Bob Dylan.

The EP was recorded and produced at the Mini Studio in Cambridge, MA with producer Adam Rothberg. The EP also features Berklee grad, David Delaney, of bluegrass and Americana band, the Whiskey Boys, on fiddle.
