Details:
JL Hannah's SumVoices is an ongoing collaborative adventure of JL & Friends. The singers & players are scattered thruout the U.S. One might say that we are a poor man's Alan Parsons Project in the sense that various players from wherever are gently ruddered by JL,yet each personality takes oar in hand. Original Rock with Prog, Folk, Jazz & Blues under-currents...spoken & sung.

SOUNDS LIKE...if you dig...Pink Floyd, Alan Parsons,Natalie Merchant, Bill Hicks, Doors, Strawbs, Tom Waits, Kevin Gilbert, Steve Forbert, Horslips, Moody Blues, Hot Tuna, Fiona, Jethro Tull, Dead...then you will probably find a track or 2 on here that will move you.

Sum Voices: Of Autumn & Insight
(excerpt from www.SeaofTranquility.org , reviewed by Steve Ambrosius 1/06)

"It is so important for a CD to start out correctly and from the first vocals and notes of âAutumn Drums (overture)â you know that Of Autumn and Insight is going to be something special. Sarah Wallace has this haunting voice that cuts through the guitar work, even though it is almost a whisper. Combined with JL Hannahâs talk-sing approach and you have one powerhouse opener. All of the instrumentation is subdued, yet stands out like an ornament on a tree. This is how progressive rock was meant to be made, with many themes and ideas woven together to form a whole which is greater then the sum of its parts. Highly recommended to fans of mellower, experimental progressive rock."
