This record includes songs that are staples in Corb Lund's live set, such as "(Gonna) Shine Up My Boots" and "Time to Switch to Whiskey." In addition to these lively jams, Five Dollar Bill features everything from romantic imagery of Corb's homeland, "Short Native Grasses (Prairies of Alberta)," to songs that give the listener a glimpse into the life of working class folks, such as "Roughest Neck Around" which is an ode to oil riggers and the grit that is required with that lifestyle. " Five Dollar Bill was a big milestone for me for lots of reasons. It was my first record after my metal band, The Smalls, broke up and it's when I got really serious about western music. I really dove into my family's cowboy ancestry and my very rural upbringing in this batch of songs. It was also our first record of many produced by Harry Stinson who is now a very close friend, and our first brush with Nashville, Tennessee, as we recorded half the record down there. It was our last record with Ryan Vikedal on the drums before he flew off into fame and fortune with Nickelback. It was also our last record as a trio. It was my first gold album," says Lund, "And we are still playing lots of these songs at our shows. It really defined my path forward as a western songwriter and helped lay the foundation for my whole career. I wrote a bunch of it holed up in a dingy room in the Brooks Hotel in Alberta."
