Indian Summer is a guitar based trio presenting primarily original songs and instrumentals by Gary, Tom, and Ron.
Named for one of Gary's original songs, the three meet annually in Autumn at a lake house in northern Minnesotato enjoy good company, celebrate the Fall season, anmd, of course, play music together.  On their first such getaway in 2003, Tom brought all of his recording equipment packed into a Jeep Cherokee Sport.  This resulted in a weeklong recording session which ultimately became the finished CD above in December 2005.
You can download individual tracks and/or the entire album by clicking on the cover image above.  BTW, the music for the song Indian Summer was used by permission by his friend in Germany, Hannes Wader, for a new set of lyrics by Hannes called "Heute hir, morgen dort", which has become a very well-known and beloved folk song in Germany.  You can see and hear it on Youtube here:
