Excellent!

Really well done as usual, Dan.

Love your vocal, and man, when the harmony comes in .... very, very good indeed!

Sing! Ha! Yep, you can really do that so well, Dan. Love how this builds in strength and passion. Such a professional sound throughout the mix. I've played in many garages over the years, but the music was never this good. Your band is so much better, and I like how you invited the strumming guitar to sit in with the Style.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Dan,

No matter how simple or complicated your backing tracks are, your vocals always elevate the sound to a very high level! This track has super lead and background vocals! The track has an easy flowing sound that really invites the listener to hang around! It also facilitates an atmosphere of worship and praise for the listener if so desired! The Tyros fills the chosen instrument parts admirably! I wouldn't know how to act if I had access to both a Tyros and a Genos but you prove that you are a deserving owner of both! Great song and sound!

Thanks, TB

Thanks Torrey for all your thoughts...FYI...I had to sell the Tyros to afford the Genos...thanks again...Dan

Hi Dan ...

Gonna keep this simple. This is a wonderful recording - your vocal being the star (isn't it always?). I always enjoy your posts and this one is so warm in its simplicity. So well done in all respects. best to you ...

Dan, that is absolutely, beyond a doubt, the best garage band that I have ever heard!

God gave you an outstanding voice, the ability to write inspiring lyrics, and the ability to not only create the perfect backing band for each song but also the ability to mix them perfectly with your vocals.

Loved the song.

Hi, Dan.

As usual, smooth, relaxing and meditative.

Nice build - it's especially sweet when the harmonies come in.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Beautiful song. I can hear a praise team doing this song, it kinda reminds me of Casting Crowns, or Hillsong. Wonderful job on the harmony. All around great praise and worship song.

This has a very easy going feel to it that is comforting.

Your vocals are smooth and the band and mix are most supportive of it ... and the lyric.

Bud managed and recorded a number of garage bands back in the day ... so we get your mention of that smile

Enjoyed it!
