Tracy Bonham does not sing about skyscrapers, Dutch explorers, or Native American linguistic variations on her new release Masts of Manhatta . She does, however, deliver a solid multi-instrumental performance with songs about wistful summer romance, moving to the suburbs, and balancing life between cityscapes and country roads. The title of the record comes from the famous Walt Whitman poem " Crossing Brooklyn Ferry " and, according to Bonham, reflects how perspective on urban living crystallizes as you slowly sail away from the city.

Gregory "Smokey" Hormel is Americana. His work can be found on just about every influential record in the world of folk/country inspired rock of the past two decades. From Beck to Johnny Cash even up to Leonard Cohen, Hormel's sound is in high demand, and not just for other musicians, but for movies and TV shows as well.
