Songs & Stories About Modern Day Country Living
Songs and stories from the Old Mines Bar born from the 59 Miles to Yainapai book series.
59 Miles to Yainapai
Cactus and dirt off Arizona Highway 93. The Old Mines Bar sits just off it dark inside, boots hanging from the rafters, names carved into the wall by people who’ve come and gone but never really left. Land’s being bought up. Deals are being made in rooms far from here. And the people who built their lives on that ground are about to find out what they’re up against. Clay wasn’t looking to stop. Just another mile, another town. But some places don’t let you pass through unchanged. Enter the Yainapai story. Mark your place on the signature wall.

Slow down and mean it. Built for live rooms — a chorus that makes people smile and sing along.

Your Place on the Wall
History, quiet connection, and the pull of a bar that never really lets you go. Mark your spot.

About Country Hugs Music
Country Hugs Music comes out of the 59 Miles to Yainapai book series.
The lyrics were written as the story was being built — drawn from a lifetime of living, working, and watching people live their lives. Some come from my own experience. Some from stories told by friends. All of it tied to country life — relationships, family, and the way people get through life.
It also reflects what’s changing. The pressure from the outside. The way city life keeps pushing into places that used to stand on their own.
“These are stories in lyrics — told the way they were lived.”
