EZX AMERICANA
Captures the essence of the Americana genre
Toontrack wanted to capture the essence of the Americana genre; the raw, untamed and no frills sound that rose out of the rebellion against the mainstream country and rock establishment in the 1990s. Where better to do this than in its very stronghold, Austin, TX, and through the guidance of seasoned engineer Mark Hallman (Carole King, Dan Fogelberg)?
Recorded in great detail at renowned The Congress House Studio, Toontrack is proud to present one of the most genre defining products in the history of the company: Americana EZX.
