During an interview with the Dallas Morning News, Robert Wilonsky reported the following comment from Don Henley about his new album and hometown of Linden, Texas.
“I was halfway through before I called it Cass County, and why not?” he says, sitting in a room filled with leather-bound signed first editions of classic novels. “That’s where a lot of the musical influences came from. And my hometown needs a shot in the arm.”
