Cool guitar sound, Scott.
Maybe it's a modern thing but the drum and bass may be a bit too up front for this gently tune.
Good one though.

Scott...a stellar production as usual...I think what strikes me most is the ambient texture of your guitars...you have mixed your lead with the BiaB tracks seamlessly...it is a very relaxing piece...I agree wholeheartedly with the other comments that have been expressed...so well produced and performed!

Scott,
wonderful playing and arrangement! Very airy and relaxing. Nice progression and arrangement. To my ears, one of your best mixes - super clear. Enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Scott, an excellent job here. The entire song has a very nice feel to it. Your playing and mixing is excellent. I agree with Torrey and Alan your use of the delay on the guitars is magnificent. I don't use delay very much, mostly because I can never seem to get the time delay just right, but man you've got it down to perfection here. Enjoyed the listen!

Brad

That Synthpad is doing miracles to the mix.

Thanks Rob. So glad you like the mix and guitar tones. I have been trying to open up my mixes and giving each instrument its own space in the mix. Has taken awhile to start hearing the different frequencies and clearing up the masking between them. So glad you like the song.
I break out the keyboard every once an awhile. Have been trying to incorporate them more in my songs.

Very flowerful mood, too bad spring is very far at the moment... Beautiful chording and dreamy melody, the guitar tone supports the mood perfectly. Very mellow arrangement, I really like the drum selection.

Keep on experimenting with those new styles, Scott, and give us more beauties!

Thanks Janice and Bud for checking out the song. I was thinking of your pictures and appreciation for the local flowers when I named this song. My mother got lots of bouquets these when I was a preteen.
