Summary:
"The sprawling twenty-two song 'Out past the wires' ranges from whispery ballads to guitar driven rockers and hits every musical spot between. Like much of Picott's catalog, many of the songs center around the lives of working people and the losses, defeats and small victories that can come hard won in a calloused world"--From artist's website.
