Synopsis

Album Description
Following his 1997 Gavin Americana charting "roots rockin? country rollin?" success of Somewhere South of Here, Pettersen delivers up a stripped down acoustic recording that highlights the best of his folk and Americana roots. Full of tales of trial and tribulation, from the fencing in of the old west to modern day conflict in Yugoslavia, Desperate Times weaves a rich tapestry celebrating the triumph of the human spirit. Mandolin, fiddle and banjo enhance the mood of the basic acoustic tracks and create an authentic Americana sound for this modern day Folk classic. First released as an eight song E.P. in 1996, Pettersen expands on the original with new songs and new vocals and mixes.
