https://youtu.be/uHAqJyGL-4chttps://soundcloud.com/torrey-bliss/sedona-sunriseWith this song I am continuing with another instrumental. A few years ago I accompanied my mom on a trip to Sedona, Arizona. I feel the Red Rocks area around Sedona is some of the most beautiful scenery you will ever find. This place left a lasting impression on me, and as a result this song was born! I recorded this for my mom because she loves this area so much. I was going for a "Southwest" feel/sound with this track and I feel that I got pretty close. I hope someone enjoys it!

Wow, the groove on this is infectious! And that is some fantastic playing you did on this. I'm definitely getting a Santana sort of vibe with this one.
Thanks for sharing!
Cheers, Deryk

I don't think instrumentals get the true credit they deserve. This was so amazing, and while I have never been to the place that has inspired this particular song, I definitely want to go there now! Thanks for the share.
Cheers, Ember

Torrey,
This really shines. Probably my favourite of your instrumentals- your playing has never sounded better and the melody the tune returns to is very catchy and uplifting. Fantastic production- using the celtic rhythm guitar an inspired choice. You`ve done your mom proud with this!

Torey, this is really beautiful! Has a real nice Santana/Phil Keaggy feel to it. Great tones on the guitar. Beautiful video.
Love it!

Hi Torrey,
I think everything's been said that this song deserves. It's amazing and a true pleasure to listen to. Your playing is outstanding - love the tone on your guitar. And I think you capture the feel of the Southwest quite nicely. I've been to Sedona three or four times and I fully agree with your assessment of its beauty.
That is a really great cut ... congrats on a wonderful piece!

Great intro. I really like the acoustic strumming which creates strong rhythmic base. Super guitar playing and the melancholy melody is a pleasure to listen to. Mix sounds really professional.
