I have thought many times about doing a new record since releasing “The Watcher.” I stepped away from music altogether for several years after the untimely passing of my frequent musical collaborator and best friend, Roger Taylor. The “Legal Bytes” project brought music back for me. So did leaving the daily corporate grind to join Vertex Advisors in 2019. I have found a better work/life balance as a result and some limited time to pursue creative projects.
As management consultants, we sometimes advise clients to take a reasonable risk and step lightly outside their comfort zone to achieve real results. The ones that do enjoy great success. Many are afraid to do so. I took our own advice on this project – everyone I worked with over the last two years on this production was totally new to me as a collaborator and all are many years my junior in age. They really pushed me artistically on this project which I think led to the best result. You can find brief information about the songs on this new record and my older one within the discograpy menu . I sincerely appreciate the time you take to listen and/or share these songs with others.
Thank you especially to my wife, children, mom, brothers, extended family, close friends, and colleagues who put up with and support the mercurial life of an artist. Nobody can create anything alone. Putting yourself into a piece of art and sharing it with the public is always intimidating. This project is dedicated to the memory of my dad, the late, great, Sam Gillman, who always believed in my musical ability so fervently, so irrationally if truth be told, that I never stopped believing in it myself.
