Fortune smiled when I met London-born Rupert Wates, a most gifted singer-songwriter. Rupert is prolific, and insightful, becoming a force in American music, touching the hearts of his listeners. His story is hard to pin down, the journey of his music covers all aspects of human experience, pushing the boundaries of music from artful to playful, to pensive and inward-looking, to cries for social justice.

Rupert has graciously granted me the opportunity to record some of his songs. Together with jazz veterans Jeff Colella, Chris Colangelo and others, we are honored to present “Wide Open Heart,” the songs of Rupert Wates.

As you listen, I hope Rupert's songs will inspire you to live from the center of a wide open heart. — Susan Kohler

My Romance is a collection of nine cover songs set to examine the cycle one endures in a romantic relationship. It begins appropriately with "Where Do You Start?" and ends with "On My Way to You," quietly suggesting that the journey is the destination. Susan produced the album with notable jazz musician Jeff Colella to find the tender, yet passionate message of each arrangement..
