JOHN AUSTIN
COLLECTION ONE (1990-2006)
Available August 2006 - Order here!
A collection of 19 songs from
a decade & a half of studio recordings,

AUSTIN ECHO

"Produced by longtime friend and collaborator Glenn Matullo (Shawn Mullins, Indigo Girls, John Mayer), Austin Echo exudes intimacy with its warm acoustic sound. The soul of each song takes precedence, delicately augmented by harmonies, guitars and contributions from old pals, including Don Peris (Innocence Mission) and Brandon Bush (Train)." - Paste Music
