Album Notes

Going to Cape May is a highly melodic album of exquisitely crafted songs by Jeff Touzeau. In a highly engaging acoustic framework, Touzeau uses powerful metaphors of the ocean, covering themes of beauty, mysticism and loss. The album is lyrically challenging and perhaps a good musical accompaniment to a work by Joseph Conrad.

The album opens with "Going to Cape May", a timeless journey through song to America's first seaside resort. Each song thereafter takes the listener away to the oceanside as if they were lost in a book or a dream.

The album is simple in execution: Touzeau sings and plays acoustic guitar on each track, and is backed by minimalist percussion and other elements. Each song features multiple vocal arrangements and harmonies, along with the unique feel that Touzeau's guitar playing evokes.

This is an album that is timeless in its quality. It could have been recorded at the dawn of the Victorian age or late last week.
