little dreams

"from the percolating rhythms of the opening track steal light courtesy of percussionist mark clark's brushes and fist riffing on an old road case that once belonged to kip winger, it's clear that i'm having fun on this one.

hi folks, jaime michaels here. now i could just say, hey man, buy my CD. it's good. the songs are strong, if i do say so myself. the backing performances are inspired.

roots rocker jono manson's electric guitar on steal light and the bluesy semi-title track every little dream. chris ishee's piano and michael kott's cello coloring the ballad almost daedalus. chesky record's artist and my pal sara k's beautiful harmony vocals on my fave du jour somewhere like italy.

or i could take the hyperbole up a notch and bombard you with adjective after adjective describing what you'll hear. nope, not my style.

my production company is called frumdahart music. that's what this is. good acoustic tunes brought to life by some great players. it was a pleasure creating this music with my friends. i'll be honored if you'll allow me share it with you. Peace" - jaime michaels

REVIEWS

"Jaime Michaels' use of language is uncommonly exquisite. His songs and writing have the hand rubbed luster of universally personal feelings. When they touch you, you feel as if you've held them before, then you wonder if you really have"
Fran Gray - Two Louies Magazine - Portland, OR

"Equal parts wit and wisdom...little dreams celebrates little things in a big way."
Neil Fagan - Performing Songwriter Magazine

"...a masterful understatement from a singer-songwriter who knows the value of space and subtle shadings..."

"...enigmatic lyrics and arrangements much like Daniel Lanois...the genius of this
album lies in its simpleness..."
mish-mash CD review

"Excellent Modern Folk from a road-weary, but still optimistic,professional. Subtle
guitar work is just as interesting as the lyrics."
