This CD is dedicated to my Father, who gave me his precious guitar, with endless love and encouragement.
It was a great experience to collaborate with two well respected music veterans. Producer John Zych from Long Island, NY and Producer Simon Tocclo from Sweden gave a great deal of "moxy" to this project!
"Thank you both for your exceptional talent and your very dear friendship".
Special Thanks: To Matt Beisner, artist and dear friend, who was the very first one to encouraged me to write and produce my own music. (www.mattbeisner.com)

"This album was inspired by my worldly travels; my association with my friend and web designer Nirmal Merchant and his incredible India, being on tour in South America and the Caribbean Islands; the solitude of the snowy winters of Sweden, Amsterdam, Finland, Austria and Germany; my enormous respect for the people of Japan, the beautiful green land of Ireland, the romantic visits to France and Italy, crossing the Adriatic Sea into Yugoslavia, the Grandeur of England, living in New York City, one of the greatest, high speed, trend setting cities on the planet; surviving and blossoming in the rough and seedy artist community known as Hell's Kitchen; remembering my humble happy Cajun roots in Bayou Pigeon, Louisiana; and finally bringing it all back to my beloved New Orleans, Louisiana, the unbreakable spirit of the people there, the sweet smell of magic in the air, that breathes life into every bit of it's culture and it's music. It is with a great awareness and respect for how small and fragile we are on this tiny beautiful planet we all call home, that I make my plea for global change and social acceptance, for our future, our children's future, and for the peace of all mankind".
