Incredible, brilliant! Impossible not to be moved. Music that heals the soul and the mind

A beautiful piece for a so sad occasion. Magnificent tribute

So sorry for your lost David. This is a fitting tribute to Patrick and such a great piece to listen to. Thanks for sharing

such a beautiful piece. it makes me feel nostalgic but at the same time ambition.😊

I’m so sorry for the loss of a dear friend, one who clearly had a sweet talent and appreciation of emotions and music. As evidenced so supremely on this priceless recording. Beautiful.

Gold, spun with such feeling and tenderness.

With great sadness I announce the passing of my good friend, bandmate, and Soundcloud artist, mandolinist Patrick Howell.  Some of you knew of his valiant battle with cancer and supported him in prayer and the warmest of well wishes.  He succumbed to the disease July 17, 2023 surrounded by a loving family who helped usher him into the presence of the Lord Jesus.  Besides being a beloved friend and brother in Christ, he was also a muse for me, challenging me to take his little "ditties" and make them into songs.  I will be featuring those songs in the coming weeks in my "Spotlight", but for now I pay tribute to his life and talent with how he beautifully decorated this special song two years ago with his playing.  Rest in the sweetest peace my friend until the Lord awakens you.

When You Awake (with Pat Howell, Mandolin)

I am a finger-style guitarist living on the Texas high plains.  At the core of my music is melody that is inspired and informed by my Christian faith, family, friends, and countless influences through the years from the great composers, to jazz, folk, rock, Latin, Celtic, and the many fine musicians I have come to love on the Cloud, some I have been privileged to collaborate with.  Thanks for stopping by to have a listen. Comments are always welcome. Feel free to click on the picture of any track to learn more about it.
