An operetta featuring horns, strings, and librettos edited using random methods.  What if cicadas spoke our language?  What if we spoke theirs?  It wouldn't sound like this.  I don't think.  With video accompaniment on 'the youtubes'

Cicada Psalm

Keith was kind enough to lend his beautiful voice for the chorus on the Utility Project track from the album Empress of Ireland.  He ALSO cut his own version of the vocal for the entire track.  It's pretty durn good!  Full album available FREE right here https://utilityproject.bandcamp.com/album/empress-of-ireland

The Unbearable Lightness Of

Existential crises are times for drastic measures.  Buy a one way ticket somewhere.  That's Michael Dufresne on Baritone Sax.  Yes it is.

A buddy of mine took his own life a couple of years ago, all these old wounds opened up recently when we had a young man in our town do the same.  I don't usually write 'so personally' but i needed to get it off my chest.  I think it helped a little.  Don't kill yourself.
