Gummersall recorded his "Beer and a Rose" album at the special Welcome to 1979 analog studio in Nashville, Tenn., with his "dream band" featuring band members of his music heroes Ryan Adams and John Prine. In early 2015, Gummersall released the EP "Kiss Me" with his most recent trio, and work is underway on a new album including Nashville super musicians.
