A Planet Where Flowers Bloom, and Bombs Fall
|

| |
This double CD incorporates several remixes from Crossing The Bridge, along with new original music, remixes of recordings from several Milwaukee-area bands (Paul Cebar, One Drum, Salt Creek, Love Live Music Collective), and contributions from many musicians (Mike Link, Tobias Kaemmerer, Hamid Alwan, Mike Kashou, Sadie Benning, Tom Plutshack, Steve Wiest, Perry Lee), with Harvey Taylor's spoken words (poems, song lyrics) added to all but one of the 49 tracks.
Stylistically, the music is very diverse, (World/roots/jazz/electronica/gospel/r&b/you name it), and the pieces explore a wide range of themes, from somber meditations on current events, to lighthearted expressions of delight in nature.

Crossing The Bridge
|
Crossing The Bridge is a duo project, with Mike Link (keyboards, and
various magical devices), and me on trumpet (the return of a childhood
involvement, in a much deeper form), with Holly Haebig adding her
beautiful flute to one tune, and Tom Plutshack, guitar enhancements on
two others, a combination referred to by one poetic soul as "jazzy
electronica, with World Music influences..."
