Western Skies is a love song to the mythology of West Texas. Not the cowboy and Indian version, but the one that exists only in my mind.

It is an album, an art book of Polaroids as well as song lyrics and essays written along the way, and finally, a series of spoken word essays set to music and video.

“Western Skies is a near perfect multi-media balancing act performed by poet, essayist, photographer, singer and songwriter, Darden Smith.” – Rodney Crowell
