This is such a beautiful song full of winter's chill, but embracing a sorrowful theme of hope on the verge of being lost. Thank you for inviting me to be a part.

This is simply lovely.  The softest driving insistence that if we could only cut the mental umbilical connection to a torrid past, the discomfort of the present need not define the shape of the future.  We can but draw strength (and sharpen our scalpels) from the uplift of work such as this.  Thank you, and bless you both.

Despite all the uncertainties evoked in your text, this musical moment allows us to spend a few very pleasant, intense and escapist minutes .... The magic works once again with the great musical talents of both of you for this collaboration .... https://soundcloud.com/david-dunhamuser589535203

A beautiful track, nice arrangement and collab 👌

well you guys really write beautiful music and compliment it here with such a wonderful voice. I hear your message loud and clear and think about how hard it is for us to learn from the past and make the future better rather than repeat the same mistakes and hasten the downfall of everything. hope is essential. empathy is needed

wow this is deep and dramatically beautiful! there's almost a hint of Sephardi lament here

A nostalgic look back at childhood…memories of visits to my Acadian grandmother in the Acadian village of Kippens, NL. Honouring the memories of grandmothers everywhere…

This piece was created during a Fredericton Arts Alliance Residency. Guitar music composed and performed by Bryan McDaniel.

Strawberries

Sliding down with my shovel and pail
Off in the distance I see a whale
Time to see grandma 
to be nourished and fed

Bread and drizzled honey
Homemade bread and homemade cream
And strawberries

Morning awake, soft dreams fill my head
Perhaps today I will be fairy led
The smell of wild clover
Over and over, it is spread

The grass has grown a mile above my head
I can make it dance and never be seen
You’d think you watching inside of a dream
Now home to grandma in her strawberry bed.

Bread and drizzled honey
Homemade bread and homemade cream
And Strawberries

It’s so sweet that you want repeat
It’s so sweet that you want to repeat

Bread and drizzled honey
Homemade bread and homemade cream
And Strawberries

Bread and drizzled honey
Homemade bread and homemade cream
And Strawberries

Strawberries

It is hard not to react when the news is full of war, and all forms of misery, which spread like the wind over our planet, and the heart aches in the chest when thinking about the future for the grandchildren. What will our world look like fore them in 10-15 years or so........probably not so good I would think....unfortunately.

But we can never let Hope leave us, because without it, our soul dies.

Thank you very much my dear David, for your amazing guitars, which enhance and enrich this this sad yet hopeful song. It is always an honor and a pleasure to collaborate with you.

Merry Christmas 🎄❄️☃️⭐

It's my favourite time of year so I thought I would try and create a festive sounding piece of music! 

A Winter's Tale

Mom's harp and an old unlabeled Ariah guitar I picked up in EastVan, CA, for CAN$35 at an antique store w/some damage...

This track, "Safe Space", is a collaborative effort conceived and developed by David. k. A. Spencer and cgmaness.

David took some bare bones riffs, beats, and bass from myself and transformed them into an entirely new galaxy of sounds. 
To my ears this sounds like the explosion of a Super Nova. 
David added synth, drums, bass, and guitar. Ultimately, David's added skills were the icing on the cake for this creation. Visual art also provided by David Spencer.
We hope you enjoy this track. ❤️🙏☀️
