Peter Elman's second original solo album mixes elements of pop and country music in a musical setting that can only be described as "Americana. "DAKOTA NIGHTS pushed the boundaries of the new acoustic music genre, combining haunting melodies with bold arrangements and a pop sensibility.
Featuring Peter's piano with an excellent supporting cast of musicians,among them Darol Anger (violin), Mike Marshall (guitar), Norton Buffalo (harmonica) and Richard Greene (violin),this ground breaking album is a musical journey to the heartland.
America at the crossroads
Trouble in the heartland
But this heart,
This heart ain't about to break
—Listen, you can hear it—
The soul's song
Inching down the highway
Through lonely days and Dakota nights
(Poem by David Leivick, inspired by Dakota Nights)
