Late in 2007, recording engineer Mitch Webb (Mantis Records Studios) packed up his studio gear and followed Danielle Howle down a long, bumpy road to the solar-powered Swamp House which sits deep within the magical wilderness of the Francis Marion National Forest.

Together they captured the first known album to be recorded on solar power in South Carolina. The sessions were originally meant to be demos, but once Howle and Webb listened back to the tracks, they decided to release them on CD. The collection lived in that physical form until February 2020 when ‘Swamp Sessions’ was released in digital format on streaming platforms (and on DanielleHowle.com).

It is nice to visit this material again and offer it to my music friends. I have changed so much since those days as a spirit and an artist."

1988 saw Lay Quiet Awhile's addition of front person Danielle Howle on vocals, guitar and songwriting. Together with drummer Troy Tague, who joined in 1987, they released a six-song cassette titled “The Other Eggs Are Waking Up”. With Danielle Howle joining the band that distinctive Lay Quiet Awhile sound came into full focus. But how exactly would one categorize that sound? Critics have described it as "eccentric buzz-mania" and "a blending of folk and punk without the sudden gearshifts that one might expect".
