Shoebox Letters

This summer, Dennis, Dave, Stephanie, and Greg and have been working in Greg's studio recording songs for "Under the Same Roof" the new Shoebox Letters EP. "Under the Same Roof" is scheduled for release in January 2023. The title track was written by Dennis and Susan Lowery. Stephanie takes the lead vocal on "Drinking Till I Can't Walk Straight" written by Dennis and Brian David Willis. Dennis and Greg wrote "Running for Daylight" which features some fine Bakersfield flavored country-rock. And what would a…

Shoebox Letters' Flight Risk finally sees the light of day and has been distributed to radio for airplay. Flight Risk can be downloaded from itunes, Apple Music, Amazon, etc. and streamed on Spotify. 

Believe it or not, we started writing and recording Flight Risk in late 2020 and the recording spanned all of 2021 and early 2022. We faced numerous delays and obstacles to finishing this project.. As many of you know, Shoebox Letters is a recording band. Our last official live show was for Portland's KINK…

Shoebox Letters' Flight Risk project is still facing production delays. In the meantime, I decided to write and record a six song mini-album this summer titled Stand Clear and Disappear. Five of the songs were recorded with Bob Stark in Portland, Oregon and the sixth song, "Holiday For One," was recorded by Greg Paul in Portland and Brian David Willis in Nashville.

After recording our last several albums with Greg Paul and Brian David Willis, we decided to change up the production and enlist Bob Stark to…

The Forgotten Ones is a four song collection of songs that Shoebox Letters started recording in 2016.  As the years rolled by, these songs did not quite fit any Shoebox Letters CDs. Now, Shoebox Letters has released these songs together.

Looking For You, written by Dennis Winslow, Greg Paul, and Susan Lowery, started as a music library project.  In fact, the music track was pitched for possible television placements.  The track was so good, that it was decided that lyrics were needed and it became a full…

Hello,                                 

Treasure Map is a six song EP we wrote and recorded during the Covid-19 crisis.  It was strange to record these songs one-person-at-a-time in the studio in Portland.  We each wore masks and socially distanced.  Susan Lowery contributed her vocals from the safety of her home. Other than Susan’s vocals, Greg Paul recorded the rest of the basic tracks in Portland. 

Unlike our last EP, I’m Into Now, in which every song started with a finger picked acoustic guitar (my…

Our new cd “The Road Not Taken” is finished and out the door to Americana and roots radio stations around the country.  This cd was quick work.   We wrote it and recorded it over the summer of 2015.  I sang lead on 9 of the 10 tracks and my cohort Daria Chick sang lead on the remaining track.  Daria’s vocals throughout the cd, however, prop up mine.  She really gives the songs a sly country flavor.  Kudos to Daria

Many thanks also to her hubby, Ronn Chick.  Ronn produced and recorded these songs and played…
