Album Notes

***DISCLAIMER*** because of various phase cancelations, Track #2 "Nobody Listens to the Wind Anymore" must be heared in Stereo, Not Mono, to hear the correct intent of the artist and co-producer. (otherwise, it's kind of like listening to a Beatles tune with the balance all to one side, you only hear half of what was recorded...)

ABOUT ETHAN: With influence from artists such as Michael Hedges, Ethan James Hagen has transcended the conventional use of the acoustic guitar in the world of finger-style. In 1995, Ethan received a degree in Classical Guitar Performance and Lute from Luther College, Decorah IA., and has been performing as a solo artist of original music in the Midwest region of the United States and in South Central Mexico ever since.
"Songs & Solos" was the first release of instrumental guitar music and vocal songs by Ethan James in 1997, which is out of print and sold out. A new and more involved project titled "Crescent" is now available, which includes Guitar, Voice, Piano, Tipple, and Percussion performed by the artist with Bass and additional hand drumming contributed by friends of the musician. Ethan plans to start recording his next project in the Summer/Fall of 2001 with hope to release "Flux" the early part of 2002. Aside from performing and recording, Ethan teaches private and group guitar at Mars Music in Bloomington MN.
