Four Days Away is the fifth studio album released by the American singler, songwriter John Mark Nelson on July 13, 2017. [1]
On September 11, 2015 Nelson released its third studio album I'm Not Afraid. After this was released he started to write and compose some songs for his upcoming album. Nelson stated that he started writing the album, but the process took longer and he didn't seem to find a way to finish the record, so he decided on starting the process from the scratch. On May 29, 2017 he left for Everwood Farmstead at Glenwood City, WI and started recording the new album ending the process on July 2. Four Days Away carries the concept of the album recorded on four days. He stated about the album production, "Each song was recorded using just two microphones, a few instruments, a Princeton amp, and was mixed using only EQ and compression.". [2]
The album was released by Nelson on Bandcamp for free download.

The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960, comprising John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. They are regarded as the most influential band of all time and were integral to the development of 1960s counterculture and the recognition of popular music as an art form. Rooted in skiffle, beat, and 1950s rock 'n' roll, their sound incorporated elements of classical music and traditional pop in innovative ways. The band also explored music styles ranging from folk and Indian music to psychedelia and hard rock. As pioneers in recording, songwriting and artistic presentation, the Beatles revolutionised many aspects of the music industry and were often publicised as leaders of the era's youth and sociocultural movements.
