Five-petaled flowers can be described as Pentamerous; a beautiful garden.

On May 7, 2020, the world experienced a Flower Moon (May's Supermoon) at the height of the pandemic and quarantine. Here the listener takes a journey across the globe.

Hidden Stars provides swirling, sparkling polyrhythms and warm string swells.

Home Sweet Home features harmonica virtuoso Howard Levy on a rollicking trip through the sounds of Americana. Jonathan Raveneau burns on the fiddle, and Chris Whiteman guests on acoustic guitar.

Native Land was inspired after seeing the Native American protests at Mount Rushmore this past July. Guest artist Howard Levy gives an unforgettable performance once again--this time on various flutes and whistles.

July is the peak of Indiana firefly activity - Fireflies gave nightly shows.

2020 has been relentlessly apocalyptic, a reality depicted in Days of Wrath.

The album closes with an introspective, slightly dissonant lullaby titled The Day We Went Away. The track opens with the sounds of gentle raindrops on the window sill and a steady distant chorus of tree frogs and crickets--the sounds of nature amplified when people suddenly left the landscape.

Press Quotes

A charming pandemic inspired date by a cat that just wanted to get out of the house again. He had to stay inside and was only able to get out in his mind so the inspirations here are impressions of what he wanted to encounter again. A fine display of the power of the mind, it's easily relatable, out of the ordinary instrumental music that has a nice kick to it. Check it out.
