The Edge Of AmericanaLove, Lust and a Little Loathing for Valentine’s Day on The Edge of Americana

Tonight, Josh and I are bringing you prewar and prewar styled music celebrating the chemistry tween couples on what I think many of us will agree is one of the more manufactured holidays in our annual calender (though woe to the gentleman who acknowledges such fact by disregarding the significance of said holiday).   

Enjoy the music.  Otto and Josh
