Raitiere,aaron - Single Wide Dreamer - Vinyl Record

When a few friends offered to make a debut record on him, Nashville songwriter Aaron Raitiere simply agreed to go along with it. In the four years since that first session for what would become Single Wide Dreamer, the auspicious project has retained it's casual charm even as it's guest list gradually expanded. Anderson East and Miranda Lambert, who co-produced the album, now appear alongside Nashville musicians like Dave Cobb, Natalie Hemby, Ashley Monroe, and Waylon Payne, as well as Robert Randolph, Foy Vance, and Bob Weir. With a laid-back, speak-singing delivery, Single Wide Dreamer immediately conveys Raitiere's contentment in living a low-key life. And although every song on the album could be considered a love song in it's own way, what really ties them together is his observant writing, which is sometimes reflective, sometimes irreverent, but always inspired by his own experiences. For example, "Your Daddy Hates Me" invokes a girlfriend from when he was 18, while "Dear Darlin'" is a searing (and sort of funny) letter to an ex.
