“These songs were written over the last three years. I penned most of them from home and I think the songs reflect that." With the album Little Songs, Colter's music continues to carry on the traditional sounds of his prairie homelands, while connecting a contemporary world to the values, hardships, and celebrations of rural life. He sings, “You might not see a soul for days on them high and lonesome plains. You got to fill the big empty with little songs.”
