All 6 songs on this uplifting EP "Welcome Spring" were written by Ann and recorded and produced in the Hudson Valley, NY with Grammy-winning producer Dean Jones released by 8 Pound Gorilla Records. This Chicago-based small but mighty kindie songstress expanded beyond folk and acoustic rock to present a multi-layered production involving rock guitars, trumpet, banjo, toy piano, and Mexican style 6 string bass called a guitarron. Special guests on this EP include Uncle Jumbo, Suzi Shelton, Flor Bromley, Little Miss Ann's Daughter, Olivia Milani, Michael Napolitano, Jonas Friddle and Anna Jacobson.
