Here is one of my first stabs at a song which I did about 6 years ago. I had just started playing again after a 40 year hiatus.

I was wanting to do a song for my grand daughters which were eleven and nine at the time. They are now 17 and 15 have grown from beautiful young girls to beautiful young ladies.

My original files were a mess so I redid the back track and rerecorded the melody. Hope you like it.

Scott,

A sweet flow to the melody... as befits a lullaby.I enjoy the cascading way you send out the notes. That background synth was a nice touch.
I guess we should thank those girls for being a reason you felt like playing again!

Not only do I agree with the sweet gentle melody and chord progression comments I will add that I love your guitar tone and your ability to make that axe sing!

This song had a very lovely flow to it. I don't think I could personally use this song as one that I would fall asleep to, but then again I am a super light sleeper! But I can definitely hear the sort of calming/relaxing effects this song could have on someone while they're lying in bed waiting to doze off.

Thanks for sharing.

Almost a "signature" tune and sound with some of your nice lyrical phrasing.
Very enjoyable piece.

Scott,

What a great tone. You grabbed hold of me the minute Soundcloud started playing and carried me along all the way. I enjoyed my journey and where the images you inspired took me. Such a special gift for your granddaughters and something that they can treasure for a lifetime.

All the best,
Noel

As we mentioned at SC your tone and playing on this are golden.

And the above is supported by a fine mix.

Superb!

Hello, Scott

Yes, this is your "signature sound".
Very sweet and gentle.
And your guitar is smooth enough not to feel a blank for 40 years.
This tune is exactly a great gift for your grand daughters.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

This is gorgeous Scott smile Extremely pretty, and the way you're playing your guitar is almost dream-like. The tone and progressions used are stunning. I could listen to this all day. The minor switch ups keep it interesting, and the backing tracks are heavenly.

You really did a great job here - thanks for sharing!
