Details:
Spirit Crossing is a wonderful blend of acoustic guitars and percussion with a few added elements of pop, light rock and jazz. It has a lot of textures and is so easy and fun to listen to! It would be perfect to listen to on a road trip, the drive to and from work, while making supper or while enjoying a soft glass of wine after dinner. The vibe of this album will put you in a great space! It's fun!!
