My aim when creating this album was to produce gentle solo piano music that is relaxing in mood and yet uplifting at the same time – music that “calms the mind and lifts the spirit”.
The creative journey to produce Lifted began in 2010 on the beautiful island of Kauai,
Hawaii, where as well as the breathtaking scenery I was also inspired by the lovely
harmonics of traditional Hawaiian music. I did some more composing in the red deserts
near Phoenix, Arizona before the album came to completion closer to home on the Sunshine
Coast in Queensland, Australia -
I had some amazingly joyous and beautiful experiences while creating “Lifted”... Thanks to all who helped to bring it into being...and most of all thanks to you, the listener... for the fact that you make it possible for me to make a living from my creativity... and for the stories you share of your experiences with my music that both humble me and fill me with joy!
Thank you for listening, for feeling... and for allowing yourself to be “Lifted”...
