An acoustic but gritty album of mostly Julie's songs plus a couple other East Nashville writers, and a Tom Waits classic. It's a flag-planting in the quicksand around the Tower of Song. I'm here, dammit, and here I'll drown, waving!

Featuring Julie Christensen, Chris Tench, Sergio Webb, Steve Latanation and Jeff Turmes, and recorded at The Sound Shelter in Franklin, TN., A Sad Clown takes a triumphant bow.
