Produced by Arnie Larsen, YESTERDAYâS GONE the new EP by CHICAGO VIN & FRIENDS represents the newest page in the evolving saga of Chicago Vin Earnshaw. His volcanic voice burns like whiskey & cigarettes over melodic piano & guitar lines played by Billy Lacaille & Donnie Larsen. The new songs are a reflection on the changed music scene, lost love & lone gone friends with perhaps a bit of longing for simpler times when Rock & Roll seemed to matter more than anything. â9/11 changed me deeply and I didnât think being in a rock & roll band was all that important any more so I kind of walked away from it and tried to go straight. But the straight world didnât want me. I realized then, that I had no choice but to do what I know best, and I am very grateful to my producer, and my friends, for believing in me.â The EP also features the song, Walk Away, the first collaboration between Chicago Vin and long time friend, songwriter, Mark Cutler (75 or less records). Other Personnel: Tom Goodrich: drums, Dawn Fountaine & Don Phaneuf: backing vocals with additional bass by Roger Dille. Please Enjoy & Share. Artist Bio
