This is the ground floor of something special.  Whether it is something magical, whether it is something wanting, whether it something in between, it is definitely something.  Something we are very proud of.  We are Therefore.  Two peons of a steel factory who dream of things much bigger than the confines of blue collar life.

Jamie Saunders is a local musician who has been playing music for over twenty years.  Talented in every instrument, he has played every bar within a thirty kilometre radius of Oshawa.  An avid music fan, he has tried the recording process in the past to no avail.  This time will be different.

Mark Robbescheuten is a published author who has studied literature, history, and psychology.  An avid reader and writer, he has always had a love for music and had always wished to create something worthy.

What started as two workmates soon became friendship and finally collaboration.  Having been to over one hundred concerts and after seeing Jamie play some fifty times or so, it did not take long for Mark to realize that his friend was, at the very least, on par with some of the greatest guitar players in the world.  As the gears turned in Mark’s head, he realized he had the perfect mate to write an album with.  After the topic was broached, not for a second did Jamie disagree with the idea.

The process of writing and recording began in Sept ’11 and has taken ten months.  The songs range in style from straight forward rock, to funk, to ballad, to prog.  It matches our influences of Floyd, Beatles, Supertramp, and many other various bands.  The song topics range from heart-breaking life material, to socio-political, to silly and mundane.  It is a whole cornucopia of stimulants.
Anyways, I sincerely hope you enjoy listening to this album as much we enjoyed creating it.  Thanks.      Therefore
