about
This is an emotional piece for me, done in five separate parts, that conjoin into one vibrant whole. The fifth piece is approximately 20 minutes long and only available on the cassette tape.
In early 2012 my grandmother died. Though I had been very close with her in my youth, and I seen her less and less after I moved from my parent's home. Still, she had seemed like a constant figure in my life. I always assumed I could go back and see her whenever I'd like.
Her death left me with a strange feeling, to think I could never see her again. I was reminded of the same feeling of when my grandfather, her husband, whom I had also been very close with, died when I was a teenager. I felt very empty. For some reason the repeated theme of the Addams Family movie returned to my mind over and over. There was no connection.
Still, I made this album with them in mind, and it is to them this is dedicated. I would like to think their spirits waltz together again somewhere in the cosmos.
