1/23/08 In the winter of '07, we made a silent urban western set to a rock album in Chicago. We will post one song per week with accompanying production notes, commentary, random thoughts, etc., until all ten tracks are posted.
Total runtime: 36 minutes

The Movie
A lone Musician returns to his city with nothing but a guitar and a fistful of dollars. In his absence, a former lover has attached herself to the ruthless outlaw who will shoot down anyone who gets in his way. A gun battle erupts in an alley. The Musician must have revenge. With the help of a Bartender with superhuman shooting abilities, the musician transforms into the cold-blooded gunslinger he never knew he wanted to be. Ozark Cousins is equal parts spaghetti western, silent film, music video, and an ode to the urban landscapes of Chicago and the secret worlds they contain.
