I think the title says it all, really! Tom wrote this rag for Chip Lusby, the owner of the Victorian house at which many ragtime parties and after-hours jam sessions are held, and at which some of us sleep during the annual Sutter Creek Ragtime Festival in August. The house is affectionately known as "Skunk Hollow" thus Tom named this rag "Skunk Hollow Rag". Chip made the blown-up & perspective-skewed version of Tom's manuscript that you see sitting atop one of the other pianos (alas I had a difficult time through the camera's monitor trying to find where in the manuscript Tom was playing at the time).
The Sutter Creek Ragtime festival is held usually the second weekend in August every year in Sutter Creek, California.
Skunk Hollow is now also the site of house concerts. This recording was after a Larisa Migachyov concert on May 1, 2010. A Tom Brier concert will be held at Skunk Hollow in September.
