Full Circle

Full Circle is a compilation of material I recorded during the past few years. The majority of this material is being released to the public for the first time and is available for sale on various digital entertainment sites. I included songs on this compilation that are meaningful to me and reflect what I feel is my best work to date. I hope you enjoy the music!

7. Worth The Wait from "Worth The Wait" (2003)- This was a real departure for me. David, Jim and I decided to produce a techno/dance project. Worth The Wait is about a single person who finds happiness with someone after tolerating many empty, unsatisfying years of the bar scene.

8. The Need In Me (Remix)- Released as a single to industry professionals (2005). Original version from "Time Will Tell"

We cleaned up all of the instrumental and vocal tracks, added a few effects and enhanced the mix.

It's about plugging into the relationships, work, passions and causes that give our life a sense of purpose and meaning.
