Sounds of Love is a collective of love. Created with love, about the people we love, have loved, the things we love and the music we love. The love that came from making this album runs deep and eternal, from the friendships forged, to the passion of a new romance, to reminders of our loved ones by the special sounds that spark memories of them. The title track of the album was inspired by the memory of my late mother who was my best friend. When I was growing up, every morning she would bring me a cup of tea and I would wake up to the sound of a teaspoon stirring in the tea cup like a gentle, loving alarm clock. She was the epitome of love and I miss her everyday.I sing, write & listen to music because I LOVE music. I need music, I would be incomplete without it and so would many others.

This album evolved, it took on a life of it's own and my hope is that u feel and hear the love inside of every note sung and every note played. I want 2 thank: Craig White 4 having, the patience, encouragement and a beautiful studio.
