In Their Words: “This is the second song I ever wrote on mandolin as I’m relatively new to the instrument, but I love the different colors it gives me to work with. ‘Amber Kinney’ is set in a fictional town in 19th century Ireland, and is about a mistreated wife who finally gathers the courage to leave, under cover of darkness. Side note, this was largely written late night in the chill of the garage — the only place I could make noise at that hour as I hadn’t finished the studio yet.” — Jesse Brewster
