The Gabeharts release new CD

Jim and Valerie Gabehart have announced the release of their latest album, I was Raised in a Railroad Town.

The 12-track CD – there is a “bonus” track introducing daughter Amy Taylor doing one of her originals – includes four Gabehart originals, other new songs such as the title track penned by Kevin Williamson, a David Morris, John Miller collaboration – Forever Waltz – and a couple written by band member John “Buckwheat” Green, who helped Gabehart write the Gospel song He’s The Only One Who Cares.

Other selections include Rex Gosdin’s I Couldn’t Love You More, Garland Shuping’s If This Old Church Could Talk, Curly Putman’s Green Green Grass of Home and Nobody’s Business, which has its roots in the blues and to which Jim Gabehart adds some of his own lyrics.

Assisting Jim Gabehart (banjo and vocals) and Valerie Gabehart (guitar and lead vocals) on the sessions that took place at Eagle Canyon Music, Lebanon, Tennessee, were band-members Brandon Shuping (mandolin) and John “Buckwheat” Green (bass and vocals); and guests Steve Thomas (producer, engineer and fiddle player), Randy Kohrs (resophonic guitar) and Dave Kirkey (who assisted with the engineering duties).

You can hear excerpts of all tracks in the Gabehart’s online store from where you can order a copy of I was Raised in a Railroad Town.
