2 Flatt Lonesome would like to thank each and every person that has given us a word of encouragement, a hug at the record table, fed us at their camper or brought us goodies; those that have bought our music; came to see us at a festival or concert; the DJs that have played our music via radio, satellite, or streaming; the promoters that have allowed us to perform at their events; the great folks that have supplied us with the best musical instruments and products available; the songwriters that set life to music; the musicians in other bands for their friendship and inspiration; and all that work behind the scenes in one way or another. This new CD is for you all you are the reason we do what we do and why we will keep on doing it. We love bluegrass music and we love being part of the family we are so blessed! Above all, we thank our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for His unending love, grace, and mercy. We also want to thank our families and friends for their love and support; Andrea and Danny Roberts; Daniel Mullins; and everyone at Mountain Home Music Company for putting the home in Mountain Home!

3 You ll Pay Danny Roberts, Paul Harrigill Just Dan s Music/BMI, Buddy lead vocal Kelsi & Charli harmony vocals Danny Roberts (The Grascals) and Paul collaborated on what we think is just a great bluegrass song. They did quite a job telling this story and we really love the arrangement and feel. Now we are just waiting on them to write the next one! Still Feeling Blue Gram Parsons BMG Platinum Songs US/BMI GPJ Music/BMI Hot Burrito Music/BMI This song is from the pen of the legendary Gram Parsons and it sounds like it could ve been a classic Louvin Brothers recording. We really love the song and the harmonies! You re the One Dwight Yoakam Figs D Music/BMI Kelsi & Buddy harmony vocals A nod to our love of country music comes on our spin on this incredible Dwight Yoakam song. We changed it up by having a female lead voice and adding lots of harmony it s a heartbreaker for sure. In the Heat of the Fire Kelsi Harrigill This Kelsi original was written during church while listening to her pastor preach (Thanks for the inspiration, Bro. Joel). In The Heat of the Fire was a lot of fun to record because of its aggressive, three-quarter tempo and great message. Don t Come Running David Parmley, Don Parmley BMI Buddy lead vocal Kelsi & Charli harmony vocals Our manager, Andrea Roberts, brought this song to our attention from the catalog of The Bluegrass Cardinals and it was instantly a great fit for the band and this recording. We really like the melody and the drive! In the Morning Kelsi Harrigill Kelsi & Buddy harmony vocals This song was written by Kelsi and inspired while reading her Bible during a difficult time. God s Word, prayer, and writing are the best ways to walk through the dark times in your life. God doesn t always take the pain away but He will give you the grace to endure it. weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. Psalm 30:5 Road to Nottingham Paul Harrigill, Brayden McMahan This is the very first instrumental that we ve recorded and it s written by our very own Paul Harrigill and his friend Brayden McMahan. They spent some time together writing and recording in their younger years and we are happy that this song made it s way on to our CD. As for the title, well, let s just say the whole Flatt Lonesome bunch has an obsession with the old movie, Robin Hood. Oodellally!! New Lease on Life Dolton Robertson, II Just Dan s Music/BMI Kelsi harmony vocal This is another song written by Kelsi, Charli and Buddy s dad, Dolton Robertson (he wrote He Still Hears from our previous CD). He wrote this song at his kitchen table during a time of major transition in his life. Though it was a difficult time, he was determined to work hard and build a great future, which is where this song came from (even though the lyrics took a different direction). Casting All Your Care on Him Paul Harrigill, Kelsi Harrigill Paul and Kelsi wrote this song on one of their many road trips! Everyone needs a hard-driving bluegrass gospel song and we really do love this one! Remember, when no one else understands, you can give it ALL to God and He will care for you.

4 Mixed Up Mess of a Heart Tommy Collins, Merle Haggard Sony/ATV Tree Publishing/BMI Buddy lead vocal Kelsi & Charli harmony vocals We did our best to let our love of traditional country music shine through in this great song first recorded by Merle Haggard in It is fun and energetic just like our friend, Daniel Mullins, who suggested we record it, and we really think it fits Buddy s personality well! Letting Go Paul Harrigill, Kelsi Harrigill If you are looking for a sad, depressing song you ve come to the right place! Paul and Kelsi co-wrote this one and, boy, they must ve been feeling low. Seriously though, sometimes when you re really happy the only way to write a sad song is to live vicariously through someone else s experiences...or what could ve been. Runaway Train Kasey Chambers, Steven Mark Werchon Gibbon Music Publishing Pty Ltd /APRA Kelsi & Buddy harmony vocals This is one of our very favorite songs that we ve recorded to date! Kelsi, Buddy and Charli have been singing this for quite a while and it s one that they really love to harmonize on. We step outside of the traditional bluegrass box just a little bit on this and have some fun with the vocal and instrumental arrangements. We hope you ll enjoy hearing us do something just a little bit edgier!
