about

"A musical journey where even I didn't know where I was going next!"

This is volume 2 of my 3 album set of improv piano mood pieces.
The album follows the flow and development of an imaginary film starting with credits, then flowing to exploration, discovery, and adventure rising and falling with every twist and turn. After braving the wild, rising above challenges, and conquering fear itself, we see a hopeful end to an epic tale!

These 13 tracks are 13 distinct moments of my life frozen in time that just happened "when the spirit moved me" captured on my iPhone just sitting down and playing what was on my heart that day and came to my fingers.

I could have used these as demos to then rerecord with better mics, a metronome, and maybe some added instruments, but I knew I wouldn't be able to recreate the same sound and emotion as it happened naturally, unplanned, unaltered, unadulterated, undoctored, and innocent.

So enjoy my heart and soul in the shapes and sounds of the piano (as well as other fun unplanned background noises captured like my dog and parents talking. Passion, mood, mistakes and all played and recorded during lockdown of 2020.
