The Lonseome West
On a lonesome drive through the mountains of Wyoming, Ranaan Meyer found himself in a place with no cell phone service. He couldn't even find a station to listen to on his car radio. With no distractions, and only the mountains for company, this music began to take shape in his head. We'll hear that music: it's called Wyoming 307, named after the area code.
