and a girl named Carol.
What people are saying about Small Business:
"Small Business...recalls some of the most lyrical rhythm-guitar-driven
rock of the late ’60s and early ‘70s, such as the first
material that Dave Mason issued apart from Traffic."
-- Jose Segue
Hicks with Sticks.com
"...nicely rhythmic, upbeat, folk/rock/California/American music.
Lane Murchison...knows how to tell a story. Youčll want to listen to this
CD on the back porch with a beer and some friends....Great stuff."
-- Pearly Baker Best
Natural Beauty & Health Magazine
"Lane Murchison offers up his best songwriting to date....It's obvious that Murchison
possesses a genuine love for his craft, which saturates Small Business, making
alternative country relevant once again for the masses."
-- Cecilia Populus-Eudave
Grapevine Culture
"It's a great record. Lane and the Badass Chickenbones have crafted
a beautifully textured sound without losing the rock edge or sinking
into over-production. I can't wait for repeat listenings."
-- Peter Platt
Professor of English at Barnard College, Columbia University
