Sierra Drive Sessions

“Sessions” releases unfiltered and unfettered versions of previously recorded and new unrecorded original songs to give a raw and unique listening experience of the songwriting process before to much production takes place. Somewhere between a live radio performance and an old school tape these performances are honest, warm, and great for your acoustic and “live” playlists.
