about
The Biggest Surprise- This song is a taste of an forthcoming album, called Crossing the Great Divide. I'm really excited about the songs that are forming this album, as I believe they will soon comprise one of the best, folky, countryish albums I am likely to put together in this life. All of the songs are heavy hitting for me in their content, yet light hearted in some way & I love that about the direction of it all. I was screwing around with one of those age-progression apps & the picture just seemed to happen & spontaneously reflect this too.
The Biggest Surprise, is a heavy one for me, as it comes from the perspective of someone who never had a plan for making it past their wild & reckless 20s/30s, yet somehow, despite many careless efforts not to, ended up doing just that. It came from the heart & eyes of one who sees themselves growing older, as a child of parents in their twilight years & as the parent of their own child, now in their 20s today, so it's loaded with different shades of life. I'm sure that many of you will relate to the sentiment of this song, as it's universal to the human experience in may ways & hopefully, in addition to being something you enjoy, it will hit you in a genuine place of love, gratitude & awareness as it does for me. I guess I still don't have a plan in many ways LOL, yet here I am, along with many of you, so here's to moving along ever further in the journey together, my friends!
