https://soundcloud.com/torrey-bliss/hope-beyond-the-grave-1With Easter right around the corner, I wanted to post a song I wrote several years ago that was inspired by the reason for this special day. One of the first BIAB songs I posted was an early attempt at this song and I have tried to improve it here! I hope it puts someone in a good spirit and that someone feels it was worth the listen! Thanks, Torrey BIAB Drums-Funk 16ths Bass-1433 Jazz Funk Groovin Piano-2195 Electric Vintage CoolJazzPopHeld Electric Guitar-2818 GospelSoul8thsBrent Acoustic Guitar-2403 FunkyFolk Me Vocals Lead Guitar (Godin Nylon String) Rhythm Guitar Piano Organ

Torrey....
Liked it right away because it has a cool, inviting rhythm groove....moves along very well. Vocals are well performed and the melody is very smooth and pleasing the aural receptors. Good axe playing. It's a good song....well done.
Carry on....

Torrey, besides a great voice, excellent melodic invention and ace guitar skills you manage to combine BIAB seamlessly into something far greater than the RT parts. The nylon string lead lines sound fantastic in this quite open and fresh arrangement.

Quite the appropriate message for this season of Lent. This song gets you from the start. Excellent vocal.

Torrey, I have hard time with commenting on spiritual songs, but will comment on musical part. You have done excellent job in creating this atmospheric composition.If I did not hear your previous tunes and did not read notes, I would never have guessed that it is done by one person Every instrument has its own character and mood. Great playing and singing! Thank you for posting! Misha.

Torrey,
Once again I am listening to a song of yours and wondering why you are not famous and planning your next tour in Europe instead of sharing your wonderful music with us here (but I am glad that you do share...).
You have so much talent for composing, singing and arranging music - it is puzzling me why you haven't got the big break-through in the music world... you really deserve it!
This was another tour-de-force in tasteful arranged and performed music. I - as always - really enjoyed listening to it!
Will

Torrey,
I agree with all that has been said by others...
A really nice groove that grabs from the start and continues throughout the song. A good combination of instruments to make that happen. Nice use of the funk drums.
Excellent vocals. Nice mix.
Well done.

Nice work on this Torrey! The song has a tune of character and I love the groove on it. Very vibrant, and tons of charisma in both your vocals and the backing track. Nicely catchy too. I wouldn't bat an eyelash if I heard this on the radio. Thanks for sharing
Cheers, Deryk

Great groove going on. Probably the computer I'm listening on but as some points the cymbals sound just ever so slightly harsh, which only jumped out at me because the rest of the arrangement and production is really smooth... None the less, I enjoyed listening.
It's only my madness that stops me from going insane.

Man!! Your music is always so good, but you have pushed the bar even higher with this one. Might be your best yet! Just outstanding in every way, loved everything about this. Quick production question about the Godin Nylon String if I may? Are you micing it or is it recorded direct? Sounds great
