The opening track, “Free and Renewed,” sets the tone with a compelling vocal performance layered over a captivating groove, featuring the moody and soulful trumpet of Latin Jazz Grammy winner Brian Lynch. Co-produced by GRAMMY-winner Joe Puerta (Ambrosia, Bruce Hornsby) and Kevin Arndt, the album offers extraordinary melodies, lush harmonies, solid grooves, and creative writing, making it an exceptional work. The album even includes a track that was handpicked for the indie film Sawdust City.

As an artist who constantly evolves, Brian’s recent releases, including "In The City" and his a cappella cover of the Eagles' “I Can’t Tell You Why,” reflect his continued growth as a musician. His range spans across genres like jazz, rock, pop, and funk, and he’s performed with celebrated acts such as Brian Lynch, GRAMMY-nominated Ambrosia, Joe Puerta, Streetlife with Warren Wiegratz, Tracy Hannemann, Les Lokey, Peter Mac, and Melissa Mathes.
