Album Notes

Imaginative comparisons have ranged from John Mellencamp to Crowded House -- a sound that captures the warmth of 70's acoustic singer-songwriters without seeming overly retro. But the songs aim to offer so much more; namely, a window to the soul: one man’s pursuit of peace, truth and meaning – what some have called a bare-all spiritual journey punctuated with soaring vocals and surprising, vulnerable lyrics. Comforting and healing to the spirit are words used often to describe his music.

New Dream is a themed compilation about finding hope in the adversities and brokenness of our human condition. I Will Respond, for example, a song about September 11th, uses three verses to describe the experiences of three individuals who were directly impacted by the events of that day; namely, an investment banker located high up in one of the towers, a fireman who responded to the call of duty, and a Franciscan minister who took the place of Rev. Michael Judge, who perished at the site. The song finds redemption in the face of seeming hopelessness.

Also check out Jonah, a riveting poetic ballad that will keep you on the edge of your seat, as well as Love Found You, with its haunting Indian-Celtic riffs and melt-away chorus.
