Album Notes

We are laced into our DNA, environment, families of origin, friends and lovers, all of mankind, the unfathomable mystery of being. Life is both a conscious and unconscious lacing of the heart and mind to people, places, rituals, philosophies, and objects. Even when we believe we are consciously undoing the laces, even severing them, there are knots that will withstand not only our singular will, but also eternity. And what we perceive as “good” is always laced with what we perceive as “bad.” Beauty is laced with pain. Our pain is laced with grace.
This CD is a compilation of songs that reflects my belief that the mysterious process of life has purpose, meaning, and beauty.
