We're a band of old companions (at least some of us are old in body but not in mind) where the music element takes on all its forms .... This concept is further proof that our friend David brings all the flavour of a moment of musical reflection to your music excellent and your lyrics ....

Long may these magical moments continue ....

Thank you Seagull for inviting me to contribute to your heartfelt track with my heartfelt musings. I am honored.

Beautifully at ease with itself, but with a knowing, pressing need, this is perfectly done, with a deft touch and a positive resolution - the foundation of any faith.  Wonderful, affirmative work gentlemen (oh - and Clara...:)  )

A most welcome and sustaining meditation on Faith and Hope. Thank you all for it.

I watch the news on TV,
I read the news online,
I hear the people around me worry
I hear the children asking their parents difficult questions

The world feels black and disillusioned
My surroundings feel dejected
I find tears rolling down my cheeks
I hug my wife, children and grandchildren
and let my gaze search out into the endless sea of stars
and asking myself, for the thousandth time
what the hell is humanity up to.........

We must trust our Faith, no matter what faith we have.

Thank you so much David,  my dear friend for contributing your amazing guitars to this song, that reflects my feeling of inadequacy in a world in chaos.
And thank you Clara Sorace for letting us use your tremendously beautiful voice.

Slowly The Tears Fall - David, Seagull & Clara - Faith

"Obenauf" may be translated with "on top" or "back on track", I guess...

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. ❤️🙏☀️
