All Too Familiar

Just to See You Smile - Tim McGraw (vocal cover) by DB Keith

Swinging hard again with the exceptional Al Schulman on guitar and Daniele Petrocchi on bass joining me on our original, Sleeping In.  Nothing better than being able to sleep in when you need it and while we hope this doesn't put you to sleep, it brings things down during a time when so much craziness is in the world. Fortunate to have such fine musicians and friends helping create the warm feel and extra zzzzzzzs.  Sleeping In reached #1 in SoundCloud's Jazz & Blues Category on their Hot & New category!

Sleeping In - Al Schulman / Daniele Petrocchi / Jamie Rhind

In anger, we never , we never do what pleases God
And you will, will never, you will never love what 

What I do in fear, what I do in fear,
What I do in fear, what I do in fear

Thought you’d save me when I’m calling, 
You said it’s early in the morning
 I said yes, I know, dear,

I know, but I’m falling
I know, but I’m falling
I know, but I’m falling
I know, but I’m falling
...

FALLING (Electra Volcana/Druid)

Glory Of Love

Still processing my father's loss, and struggling to put fingers to keys of late. But I know that I need to push through this wail and return to the you-n-i-verse eventually.

He'd want it that way.

LYRICS

The Truth about axes
is they smash through the frays
of the eyes and the neighs,
chunk rough trunks in their ways,
but harvest vines and scythed hays
are immune somehow

And then my father died


The thing about truths
is they burst veins with their use
as they bump and they bruise
debase and abuse
while made-up monks gussy down for pastel plaster plays,
giddy-thrup and are amused somehow

As they watch my father die


To axe about things
that make wishes with rings
grains of sooth waxed to wings
whether leather or feather
they weather the soul with
the truths that they bring
sun-drunk lay in their daze 
flippant, mince with loose ways
and flap lips like goosed fools

While my father dies

Dédicace à ma Maman---Dedication to my Mom---

Ave Helena

Unsettled Minds is a sweeping collection of orchestral adaptations that transform Beethoven’s Appassionata themes and beyond into symphonic meditations for restless souls. Each movement embraces turbulence and tenderness: brooding strings hover on the edge of silence, woodwinds whisper with searching fragility, and brass resound with fateful grandeur. Expanding Beethoven’s architecture into Rachmaninoff-like romantic musings of lush textures and cinematic dramas that capture the beauty and unease of an unsettled mind — where moments of stillness are broken by storms of emotion, and melodies carry both torment and transcendence. 

Performed in the imagined voice of Europe’s greatest orchestras, this album is an invitation into a dream state where longing, unrest, and fragile nobility collide.
