Catalina
Catalina:
Tuning: Drop-D
Instrument(s): Furch Stanford Acoustic Guitar
Santa Catalina Island is one of the eight islands that make up the California Channel Islands.

The tile often forms complex geometric patterns that can only be observed when several...

A Little More SunShine
A Little More Sunshine:
Tuning: DADGAD
Instrument(s): Stanford Acoustic Guitar, Breedlove Acoustic Bass, Various Percussion Instruments
This composition evolved from an improvisation during a live performance of “Under the Sun” a piece from my first album Out of the Woodwork. Although this composition remains true to the original melody and phrasing, it has a slightly more jazzy feel and sound.

Just Before Dawn
Just Before Dawn:
Tuning: DADGAD
Instrument(s): John How Custom Steel-String Acoustic Guitar
As the old saying goes: “Sleep on it and things will become more clear in the morning.” In thinking about this album, one day, just before dawn, after eight hours of sleep, the concept became crystallized and I had a true understanding of where I wanted to take the music. This piece was written in that moment.

Five Nights
Five Nights:
Tuning: Standard
Instrument(s): EVD Custom Steel-String Acoustic Guitar, Various Percussion Instruments
The 1981 Indiana University basketball team may have been one of the greatest teams of all time. Led by Isaiah Thomas, the team started the season poorly and did not function well together. Coach Bobby Night (yes- this is the guy that tossed the chair) pulled the team together and by the end of the season the five players functioned as a well-oiled machine that ended the...

Laurie Z.
A Reflection Of Ourselves
From Laurie's second album "Life Between The Lines" - many consider this piece to be the album's highlight. Reflection is an introspective and sensitive piece, and consists of three distinct parts. The middle section, or "middle hymn", has a spiritual feel to it. The 'acoustic guitar' throughout the piece is produced from the keyboard. Released more than 15 years ago, Relection continues to receive airplay worldwide.
