Featuring the title track duet with alt-country goddess Kelly Willis, Compass & Companion proves that the dreaded 'sophomore slump' is nothing more than a myth (Dirty Linen).  Eleven originals, a variety of musical stylings, and a stellar band combine to form a "rich and musically brilliant follow-up to his 1999 debut" (Folk & Acoustic Music Exchange).  Tracks such as "Little Sister," "Why Should I Cry," and "Take My Ashes to the River" have quickly become favorites in Mark's live shows. "Too many singer-songwriters only get half of the equation right. Erelli doesn't have that problem. He matches clever lyrics with catchy hooks...(a) superb sophomore album" (Washington Post).
