"Such Is Life" is Kerosene Dream's third album, a steady-rolling masterpiece of strong harmonies and sunny-sounding songs founded upon a Byrdsian bedrock of guitar jangle. This is a band that keeps working and growing, and the new CD is proof that good songwriters only get better when backed by a fine band.

From the Sundown Sky features the songcraft and vocals of Bart Ferguson and Dave Coey. The album begins with a song about a four year old "I Can See You" and ends in a rest home "Hanna Cove Rest Home". "The album is cyclical," says Ferguson. "Like the sunrise and sunset, live begins and ends. This isn't just a group of songs about a bunch of random topics." From the soaring up-tempo lament of "Arizona Lightning" to the quirky and whimsical "79' Country Squire"to the gritty swagger of "Phoenix," the stories and images in the song come alive. "We view songwriting as a craft," says Coey. "Intentionally crafting music that supports the lyrical ideas of each song."
