The Big Escape album was developed simply on the acoustic guitar from songs written by Warren “Big Papa” Harman over several years. Slowly the songs became more as parts were added in the studio. As an avid fan of Jimmy Buffett and other Trop Rock music, Warren wished to put together a collection of original works with an eye toward the Key West sunset. Big Escape is the result. I know you will like it!
