For those of you who may be interested, here is a little bit of rather ambient music, something I don't often do. It was a commission for another project, and I had to record it very quickly because I was leaving town the next day.

Please excuse the sloppy edit toward the beginning. For what it is, I hope you enjoy it for what it is and forgive me for what it is not.

Lovely, Susan! Always good to hear your work. Some effects in there, perhaps?

No effects, though definitely some multi-tracking : )

Beautiful composition. Wondering when you might be playing around the brooklyn/manhattan area? Thanks for sharing the new work.

I like. You get such a warm tone from (I assume?) that MSA.

Thanks, Dan, Ian, and Tucker. Some MSA's have a really sweet sound; you just have to coax it out.

As far as playing in NYC, it's long overdue, but I don't have anything coming up in the near future - perhaps early next year.

Also, this track was commissioned for a country song by Baltimore's "Mole Suit Choir" - banjo and two voices. What I posted is just my part (without the banjo and voices).
