* My friend Tom Irwin’s new musical project is fascinating. Tom found a diary in the attic of his family’s farmhouse written by a teenager named Harry Glen Ludlam over a hundred years earlier...

As I read through the pages, Harry’s world again came to life through his daily, personal recollections. Shucking corn, a trip to the 1893 Chicago world’s fair, Gypsies on the farm, walks in the woods, lessons on his cornet, the tragic death of a schoolteacher, his grandma’s passing and the family’s decision to sell the farm and move to the state of Washington were all recorded in a plaintive and sincere style.

* Tom started a KickStarter account to fund his “Sangamon Songs” project and he’s just a few hundred dollars shy of his $3,500 goal.

So, please, click here and kick in a few bucks to help fund Tom’s project. If he doesn’t reach $3,500 by October 20th, he doesn’t get any of the money. Lend him a hand. Thanks.

* Tom has a video explaining the project
