Thank you Michael Pratt for introducing me to this wonderful group!

Son Volt is an American rock band formed in 1994 by Jay Farrar after the breakup of Uncle Tupelo. The band's current line-up consists of Farrar (vocals, guitar), Andrew DuPlantis (bass guitar), John Horton (guitar), Mark Patterson (drums), and Mark Spencer (keyboard, steel guitar). In addition to playing alternative rock, the band is considered a staple of the alternative country rock movement of the 1990s. The band's sound also is rooted in folk rock and Americana.

The song "Tear Stained Eye," deals with the 1993 flood. St. Genevieve, on the
Mississippi about 70 miles south of St. Louis, is a French settlement that dates
from the early 1700's. It's oldest homes are of significant historical importance
as they are built with the wood/logs that make up the walls sitting vertically.
It is the largest collection of such buildings in the U.S. Most of the town survived
the flood.

Founded around 1740 by Canadian settlers and migrants from settlements in the Illinois Country just east of the Mississippi River, Ste. Geneviève is the oldest permanent European settlement in Missouri. It was named for Saint Genevieve (who lived in the 5th century AD), the patron saint of Paris, the capital of France. While most residents were of French-Canadian descent, many of the founding families had been in the Illinois Country for two or three generations. It is one of the oldest colonial settlements west of the Mississippi River

Genevieve (French: Sainte Geneviève; Latin: Sancta Genovefa, Genoveva; c. 419/422 AD – 502/512 AD) is the patroness saint of Paris in the Roman Catholic and Orthodox traditions. Her feast is on 3 January
