This summer, the 2022 release of my original guitar solos, honey cadence, reached 4 million streams on Amazon Music.
This was not expected, but most welcome.
The most popular songs are a surprise to us.
Do you have a favorite?
From the honey cadence liner notes:
Composed at the end of 2021 and early 2022, the six pensive solos of honey cadence are the first of my compositions to be recorded.
I started sketching melodies and gestures that were floating in my head with the intent of creating an album of meditative intimacy, which though on the quiet side, would be able to keep one’s attention. Improvisations highlighting my preferred qualities of the guitar: tone and timbre variation, note doubling, harmonics, pitch bends, and percussion gave me the confidence and freedom to explore. Each of the six titles has a connection to music, as well as general language, i.e., ‘anticipation’ is a musical ornament and linguistically expresses expectation or prediction.
May the album add some sweetness to your life.
We are over joyed and grateful to all who have listened and continue to listen to the album
honey cadence is on all streaming services and a few physical copies are available at concerts or via Bandcamp.
Scores are published by the American Composers Alliance.
