Cool tune, Scott. Liked the contrasting leads, the FX and how they were panned. Created a very cool, swirling effect that matched the song title to a T. The BiaB sounds very nice indeed, and everything is mixed together perfectly. Excellent!

Perfect song to start this Sunday morning. Crisp and cool outside, with the sun shining and training the dogs.... This is nicely done. I really like the clean tones you have with the guitars.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Excellent Scott! Great title too.
You and those BiaB session guys sound like you been jamming together for years.
Very nice mix that really does your arrangement justice.
We loved your note and tone choices.
The brush drums added nicely to the contemplative feel.
Well done and we enjoyed the listens,

Scott, those are some sweet sounding guitars. Plus you have some very impressive chops.
Super backing band and mix.
Loved it

Hi Scott.
This is superb. The tone of your guitar sits very comfortably on my psyche. I love what you've created and how you've presented it. Everything about it is first-class. Your lyrical style of playing showcases a really fine melody backed by an excellent arrangement.
It's wet and cold here in Melbourne at 1:15 p.m.today and your song makes the day just a little warmer and a little more inviting.

Had me from the very first guitar notes. Contemplative and beautiful ... the kind of song I particularly love listening to So evocative, and I love that, though there are of course no lyrics, it just tells a story. It captivates one's attention, and holds it there, so that one's soul may be able to follow what you're telling us through your guitar. 3 minutes and 21 seconds of a break from the mundanity of the world. Thank you.
