This collection of songs written by Corwin Zekley and Julian Jenson is full of poetry, bleak humor, and authentic musical ideas in an assortment of genres. The album was recorded acoustically by a selection of inventive Jazz, Classical, and Folk musicians who all have very different approaches to playing the songs. We hope you enjoy our music as much as we enjoyed writing and recording it. - Corwin Zekley My first word was 'bagpipe.' Sadly there are no bagpipes on this album, my sincerest apologies. In case you can't tell from my first oration, I was raised in a very musical family. At the age of four a violin was thrust into my hands, and although not entirely of my volition, or in fact any interest whatsoever, I learned to play. Now, thanks to the commendable bravery and dedication of my father, the instrument that I considered my bane is my boon. In recent years I've been writing and composing many songs, most importantly with a certain Julian Jenson. This album is largely a collaboration and collection of those songs that this amazing pianist, composer, and friend and I have written together. - Julian Jenson You could say music was an inevitability for me, not unlike a head-on collision on a stormy highway. My father earned a degree in classical piano performance in Basel, Switzerland and his mother had been a piano teacher for 50-something years. It was only natural that the pair would conspire together to instruct me until I could take formal lessons in piano and conducting at the age of five. Since those days I've had the pleasure of studying with incredible pianists, including Douglas Ashcraft, John Perry, Ory Shihor, and Elizabeth Roe. I've also performed extensively in recitals, concerts, private homes, clubs, and even on National Public Radio's From The Top. Though the study of classical piano is where my focus lies, I've taken great pleasure in expanding my musical palate to include pop, jazz, and the other nonsense you're going to hear on this album. Working with Corwin on these songs has been a source of both horror and delight for me, and hopefully your listening to them will have a similar effect.
