Introducing “Beyond Words” my first solo album in 40 years.
While I have played as part of other bands, contributed arrangements or songs, been a co-writer as a member of other groups or artists, this is my first foray into my own compositions.
I chose an instrumental album at the encouragement of my wife, Tonya, simply because of the volume of snippets and rough outlines on my voice memos. In the next few weeks I will describe what inspired the title of each piece and how it speaks to me. Most of them flowed from a session of just relaxing with my instrument—thus the more quiet sound. Each song came about as a result of how I felt at the time.
