*** Our new album, My Ozark Mountain Home, is out today!! Available to buy and stream everywhere https://li.sten.to/myozarkmountainhome *** We had already recorded a different version of this song on YouTube, but for our album I wanted the song to sound sparse and reflective. I described what I wanted and in less than 24 hours, Emmett came up with this twisted version thus earning it the title "Wayfaring Stranger Gets Stranger" from mom on our chord charts. We ran through it during our last rehearsal before we drove to the studio in Nashville. When it was finally time to record Wayfaring Stranger, I was skeptical since we had only three studio hours left and two more songs to record, but Troy, Dewey, and the band all worked together and completed this version of the song and I love it. ~Julianne ►We first recorded Wayfaring Stranger on a rainy day back in 2021 https://youtu.be/fn1MXtOukXU Buy or stream the old version on our Live Sessions, Vol. 04 album https://li.sten.to/livesessions04 ►More Julianne: May Baby (Original) https://youtu.be/3Mw4Pbg_NVo Fields of Gold https://youtu.be/ZM_76pkynos Be Thou My Vision https://youtu.be/rwwWMWTpp-U ►Photo: Album completion day https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd8hE0-uAS9 ----------------------- ►Useful links: YouTube About page https://www.youtube.com/c/thepetersen...

The band consists of four siblings, Katie, Ellen, Matt, and Julianne, our mom Karen, and good friend Emmett Franz.

Gotta try the pancake joint

A breath of fresh air

Two comments:
1. While watching this video, my breathing distress (from a cold) evaporated!
2. I really admire everything here. I like how, in the Arkansas Traveler bit, all three instruments are sharp, distinct and blend well. Each instrument is played excellently, with each having equal dominance. Nobody is muted or holding back. Love it.
