Have You Met Miss Jones

Some Day My Prince Will Come - Frank Churchill

Bessie Smith "You've Got to Give Me Some"

Midnight Reverie

It's Only A Paper Moon

Camille Saint-Saëns Organ Symphony NO.3 4th Movt performed by the Leicester Symphony Orchestra at De Montfort Hall

Recorded by Richard Wheelband and Paul Holland

Camille Saint-Saëns Organ Symphony NO.3 4th Movt

"Verse 1
The clock’s got no mercy, it’s 3:04
Thoughts creeping in like they own the floor
I lit a candle just to watch it burn
Hoping silence might take a turn
Verse 2
My mind’s a lounge with no last call
Every memory’s dressed to brawl
Regret’s in heels, dancing on my chest
And peace? She never RSVP’d, I guess
Chorus
Midnight meditations, sipping on doubt
Every whisper’s louder when the lights go out
I play my heart like a broken tune
Underneath this lonesome moon
Verse 3
I tried breathing deep, I tried letting go
But my past keeps putting on a show
The future’s fogged up like a windowpane
And I’m stuck rehearsing yesterday again
Bridge
Maybe dawn will bring a softer song
Maybe I won’t hum the things I did wrong
But tonight, I’m just a shadow in my bed
Composing symphonies inside my head
Final Chorus
Midnight meditations, jazzed in despair
Notes of longing floating in the air
I’ll keep playing till the morning’s tune
Wakes me from this sleepless swoon"

Midnight Meditations

"When tragedy strikes our lives, time doesn’t heal wounds. Words of condolence are not enough to alleviate the painful heart, but once we start surrendering our wounded hearts to the magical beauty of music, we may just be able to find solace from within…" excerpt from SOLACE album notes.

Structured around 5 stages of grieving (Denial, Depression, Anger, Bargaining, Acceptance), SOLACE is a personal musical healing project I created to pay tribute to my father, who's life was taken away in a senseless gun violence on the south side of Chicago.  SOLACE stays close to my heart as I process and bring powerful closure to the past 25 years of silently grieving. I share SOLACE with millions of others suffering silently due to such unfortunate events. May the power of music bring us comfort and healing and enable us to seek compassion, forgiveness, appreciation and love for one another. Let's spread MUSIC and LOVE, not bullets and hatred, and make this world a better place. May God bless us all. Thank you!
