This project has been a labor of love. All the arrangements are original. We conjure them in our spare time, trading ideas over the breakfast table, performing for friends in the backyard and slowly refining the details. We recorded in our home (stepping carefully over our elderly dog) and we engineered it ourselves -- talk about a learning curve! We loved every minute of it and we hope this music makes you happy too!
