Ope Mountain is a Wisconsin themed album that blends multiple musical genres to create a tour through the State from the Mississippi River to the Cheese Capital of the World in Plymouth, Sheboygan County. Songs about Madeline Island, the Peshtigo fire, and Wisconsin's First Scientist, Increase Lapham, take the listener on an educational ride with a tight horn section, vocal choruses, a weaving fiddle, and infectious keyboards.
