The Scarlet Goodbye (labelled “the most unlikely mash-up in Minnesota music history”) is the creative combination of Daniel Murphy (Soul Asylum, Golden Smog) and Jeff Arundel. Murphy had stepped away in 2012 after 30 years of recording and touring. A chance meeting with the mellow singer/songwriter Arundel led the duo to start writing and recording together. The result is their full-length album, Hope’s Eternal, produced by John Fields and releasedvia Nashville’s The Label Group. Red LP.
