Production details

Spikedrivers founder Ben Tyzack grew up in Iowa City, Charleston, Carolina and Atlanta, Georgia, where spikedrivers were the men who drove the spike that hold the steel rails to the wooden ties. Ben's musical education began with his father's collection of Dixieland, New Orleans Jazz and Ragtime records, and continued playing in rock covers bands as well as his father's 'Early Days Jazz Band'. He later discovered the blues in Atlanta, learned to fingerpick and bought a four-track tape machine to record the songs he was beginning to write. The result is a unique mixture of styles that make up the music of Spikedrivers. Studio
