The songs in this playlist are the total output of the band Concept of Innocence which I used to play in. Its first and probably final release. These songs were recorded between 2008 - 2011. Mixing was originally finished in 2012. Songs were written by Rob Wessel. Performed by Rob, with Jim Kube on drums, and guests on backing vocals on some songs.
This music is also available on itunes, Spotify, Apple Music, Google Play, Deezer and other places you listen to music.
I've learned a lot about mixing since 2012, and I've got better mixing tools and a better computer today. I have updated these mixes for release in 2020. 
I have done a lot of songs just for fun, or to try out new gear, just to capture cool tones. But these were the ones I wrote that I hoped could capture listeners' attention and be the music they play over and over. 
I'm continuing to write and record progressive rock (though the group Concept of Innocence has run its course and will not be releasing more music) and I hope to get some more up for everyone to listen to.
Thankyou for listening and supporting independent artists.

Fall On My Feet

This is a song that I wrote while I was a worship leader in Mequon, WI.  This was a worship song that the nondenominational church sang on a regular basis during their services.  This is a rough home recording made about 20 years ago.  (7 second delay at the beginning of the recording!)

Here's a small glimpse into what I've been up to over the last few months, it's called grow.

We're going to release it properly sometime in the next few weeks but didn't want you all to have to wait!

PARADOX

I made a few updates and mix tweaks to a song I originally recorded around 2009-2010.
Jim Kube on drums.
The lead guitar was a Peavey USA Limited (which I don't have anymore). Rhythm guitars included a Jackson PC2, Carvin DC127  and Hamer Monaco Elite Mahogany.
The bass was a Rickenbacker 4001. 
Synths used include Arturia Jupiter 8V and my hardware Oberheim Matrix 6R.

Thanks to Kevin Brown for lending me the beautiful Schecter 5 string bass used on this track.
I remember using my PRS 305 for the lead solo, so I was still working on recording parts in summer 2011. 
A Carvin AE185 12 string, a US Masters SG, and Carvin DC127 and DC135 are also used for guitar parts in this song.

Cardington

A page that started out back around 2010 with Rob posting blues, rock, country and pop tunes recorded with fellow musicians and singers, and a few on which Rob does all vocals, guitars and bass, and EZ Drummer plays drums.
Since 2019, Rob  has been devoting all his musical energies to writing and recording progressive rock. Fewer songs but more elaborate compositions and fancier playing.
There are tracks from other projects/bands Rob plays in here too.
