''Hayseed'' is the twelfth album and ninth studio by American singer-songwriter Susan Werner, and was released in 2013 (see 2013 in music). The project was commissioned by the University of Nebraska's Lied Center for Performing Arts. The album is a concept album about people and lifestyles in farm towns in rural America, with songs inspired by local characters. Werner, an Iowa native from a farming family, has taken a strong interest in promoting local and sustainable agriculture, themes which are dealt with on the album in songs such as "Herbicides" about herbicides and marriage equality and "Snowmobiles" about global warming. The album was initially funded through PledgeMusic, with ten percent of donations earmarked for Practical Farmers of Iowa, the Midwest Organic and Sustainability Education Service (in Spring Valley, Wisconsin), and The Land Institute. Before and after the album's official release, Werner began touring the country in a series of shows called "The Hayseed Project", in which she purchases, samples, and gives away local produce before or during her shows. ==Track listing== all songs written by Susan Werner #"City Kids (The Revenge of Kevin Oberbroeckling)" – 2:32 #"Back to the Land" – 3:36 #"Snowmobiles (The Worries of Patrick Lundquist)" – 3:39 #"Bumper Crop" – 2:28 #"While You Wait for the Rain" – 4:46 #"Egg Money (The Confession of Irene Broghammer)" – 3:32 #"Herbicides" – 2:23 #"Something to be Said" – 4:00 #"Plant the Stars" – 3:40 #"Iowa" – 3:09 #"Ode to Aldo Leopold" – 3:11 #"Farm Sale December 8, 2012" – 2:33 (Hidden track) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hayseed (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
