Songs are stories. The best songs touch our hearts in ways that we can't imagine going in. I have been blessed to work with some of the best artists, producers, engineers, and musicians in the world. I say this only to preface the following comment.
This work is stunningly good. The attention to detail and crafting of the actual song excluding the production values and performance is heart rendering. It is a testimony to a honest heart. It touched me and I thank you.
Now, let's talk production, performance, and overall gestalt of this project. I am not blowing smoke when I say that this stands up to serious, major studio efforts. It is blindingly honest and professional. Listening to the performance, I am struck at how well the vocals have been arranged. The actual played instruments are simply perfect. The additional strings and added instrumentation is a patina of beauty.
The mastering sounds like Georgetown Mastering.... and that is a serious compliment.
My hat is doffed and I stand in awe of such incredible talent on display.
