Its 12 tracks boast the popular ghost song and first single, "The Colville Bridge" as well as touching ballads like, "Stability," "Almost There," and the title track. Written as a tribute to the people and events of the community in which he was raised, Small Town Scars is a reflection on the good and bad aspects of growing up in a small town. Even so, its universal themes are easily relatable to people from any walk of life and support Alson's belief that "There's really only one story to tell: the story of the human experience." While it is a deeply personal album, there are plenty of lighter moments, including the fun, "She Always Calls Me Honey" and "She's a Country Star," among others. Small Town Scars was independently released on September 13, 2011. All songs were written, performed, recorded, and produced by Alson. The album was mixed and mastered by Christian hip hop artist Brian "Change" Penney.
