Field Work is an eclectic mix of acoustic folk ballads from Colorado where the songs grow out in the wild, just for the pickin’. This Foothills Frontiersman made tracks across the musical landscape with 12 original songs, featuring Paul’s mountain mandolin, guitar, and vocals, and field hand picked musicians of the Denver-area. Recorded at the distinctive Audio Park Recording studio in Arvada, Colorado, by he-who-hears-all, Park Peters.

The opening track, "No Side Effects", ponders the question “why is pleasure so simple? And pain so complex?” and is punctuated by Ron Baso on the electric bass and telling it to your heart with saxophone by Carlos Chavez.

Ever feel like you spend so much time in your car that you might as well be living there? There’s no place like ”Home on the Run" is a cruising down the highway in the comfort zone riding on the rhythm of the Hammond B3 organ by Park Peters and feeling the wind of Carlos’ saxophone blow in your ear. We all have to drive to survive.

Song genres range from the country-ish "Spirit of a Child", featuring Eddie Martinez on pedal steel, to a light-hearted swing tune, "Keep it Simple", (don’t tell anyone we’re in love) with Freddie Rodriguez Jr. on soprano sax and Park Peters on piano, and Hammond B3 organ.

"Stepping into the Night" is a dreamy wandering around in a bluesy rainy evening with a passion for mystery. Silky soulful saxophone rides over foot-stepping bass by Steve Ralph and keys by Craig Fisher.

"Rocky Mountain Peace of Mind" is a quest for city refugees to rise above it all, float on the mandolin breeze and country-fied acoustic piano by Park Peters. Let the divine wilderness take you away. Inspired by Devil’s Thumb Ranch, world class place of peace and beauty.

From the pages of “the men don’t know what the little girls understand” "Whatever Happened" (to my own free will) sings about the spell of love, that overpowers any worldly desires.
Singing in the language of “love-ease” with Barry Ebert and Gabe Ebert on harmony vocals and Craig Fisher on Fender Rhodes, for all the hopeless romantics.

The power of bittersweet forgiveness in "World Without Blame" rocks to the interplay of mandolin and synthesizer by Craig Fisher and vocal harmonies. “When anger is the fire feeding the flame, bury the ashes in a world without blame.”

"Broken-hearted Chevrolet" tells the blues story of the rise and fall of the auto industry when steel was king of America. “Ice-rain” keyboards by Craig Fisher, alto sax gliding over tension and release mandolin.

What is spirit, anyway, but the source of inner fire that we use to live life and how we spend our time here. I see "Holy Smoke" as a prayer that produces a state of spiritual awareness for treatment and emotional release. It’s an inside job. Wisps of pedal steel curl around guitar and mandolin and echoes of electric piano.

"Soldier’s Ghosts" is a reggae Boomer’s ballad telling the story of our old bass player, Tim Mcgraw, a Viet Nam vet, a tortured soul, a Buddhist biker in a clown suit, haunted by memories of the war and playing music “to dance those devils away”. Hey, who hasn’t banged on a guitar for hours late at night, just for music therapy? Had a bad day? Get out your guitar and play. With the mountain mandolin dancing around with acoustic piano and a carnival-like reggae Hammond B3 organ.

"Fearless Love" comes from The Great Invocation, a prayer handed down to humanity
calling in Divine love and power to be present among us, with Kent Routenstruas on piano.
