 CD Review

When the Golden Leaves Begin to Fall manifests six of The Mindful Bard’s criteria for music well worth a listen:

1) it is authentic, original, and delightful;

2) it confronts existing injustices;

3) it makes me want to be a better artist;

4) it displays an engagement with and compassionate response to suffering;

5) it inspires an awareness of the sanctity of creation; and

6) it provides respite from a sick and cruel world,

a respite enabling me to renew myself for a return to mindful artistic endeavour.

What Folks are Saying

Many thanks for sending us a copy of your stellar and deeply moving new all gospel masterpiece,  "Here at the Cross."  There's some truly powerful music here--propelled by your close, exquisite harmonies and tough-edged traditional bluegrass sound.  There's a real freshness and excitement  to your music--especially when it's sung with heartfelt conviction and feeling like it is here.  I especially enjoyed your takes on "Will You Miss Me," "Zion's Hill," "Shouting on the Hills of Glory" and, of course, the riveting "Sunday Drive" (my favorite of the bunch and an excellent track to emphasize).

Thanks again for doing it right!  I'll be doing my best to spread the
word in Nashville and in our other syndicated locations.
