Details:
With lots of terrain passed in lots of countries, Colin O'Leary has culminated his experience to proffer his metamorphosis of American Folk.

With 2 years in Chiapas, Mexico, working for the local university in the capital city of Tuxtla-Gutierrez and 2 years in Madrid and Barcelona playing music and revelling in the culture, Colin O'Leary polished his musicianship into a sort of "North American Trova".

This album has hints of a bohemian street musician playing his guitar and singing his song, but there is attention to detail here that you won't find in the bohemian style. This mixed with Colin's voice and the paintings of intimacy found in trova culminate to an album that is humble and eloquent.

Originalmente del norte de California y con mucha experiencia en otros paises, Colin intenta trespasar culturas y proveer un estilo de "trova norteamericanaâ.

El vivió en Chiapas en la calma despues de la revolucion Zapatista. Antes de esto, estuvo en Madrid y Barcelona por donde las calles saturan con musica y sonido. El gozaba de las noches suaves de Espania, tocando musica por las calles y formando a su propio estilo.

Le gustaria que se considere a este disco como "Trova Norteamericana". Tiene pistas de la inspiracion bohemia, con la humildez intima del trovador. Hay atencion a los detalles en este disco que traduce en algo simple y eloquente.
