Hanna–McEuen was an American country music duo consisting of first cousins Jaime Hanna and Jonathan McEuen, both vocalists and guitarists. Their fathers, Jeff Hanna and John McEuen, co-founded the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, a country music band which had success in the 1970s and 1980s.
“Country Pie” is a string-band session, recorded around one microphone with Carpenter, Jaime Hanna and Holmes whistling for their just desserts. And Carpenter is joined by Rebecca and Megan Lovell of Larkin Poe on “I Shall Be Released,” which promises imminent emancipation from a prison of iron bars or worried mind.
