Details:
A Collection of Experiences in Song
Edward Dee is another of the new generation of performing songwriters reaching out to you in a direct and multi-musical way. His new CD, entitled "Choices", highlights his creative blend of world-influenced Pop and A3 styles.
Building upon his musical and songwriting influences of Sting, Paul McCartney, Paul Simon and Jimmy Buffet, Edward Dee brings forth that familiar melody line and simple repetition of rhythm that these others are known for with an undeviating vocal style that is clear and inviting.
He''s backed up on "Choices" by Julia Harrell who Dee describes as "my partner in musical crime, the Yin to my Yang, the veggies to my meat, the kayak to my cigars, and my friend." Her expert marimba playing adds a unique depth to the music, and she''s right there with the percussion support.
Choices is a collection of love songs, a quest for understanding one''s place in the grander scheme of things, and an invitation to have "personal ownership of your feelings."
Songs, such as Be Around", focus on what each person can do to be a part of others'' lives and how to make life more full and beneficial. The song, "Is A Time", reflects upon the loss of a loved one through remembering what was good in the time we shared with them. Still other songs, like "Dancing Tree", give you an insight into Edward as he points out the simple experiences in life we quickly overlook.
"A gospel feel is what I wanted for this song celebrating the power of having a relationship with God," says Dee. And a gospel feel is what he achieved with "Walk With Me." This is definitely a track which compels you to dance.
"Water''s Edge" is a love song speaking to physical distance and the longing it can bring. It''s an example of the simple and heart-felt that lyrics Dee writes.
"I''ve been bold
You''ve been told
How I''d hold you near
Call you my dear
Banish the fear for today.
From the high ridge to the water''s edge
I will bring you what I''ve got to give
From the high ridge to the water''s edge
come and bring me all you''ve got to give
From the high ridge to the water''s edge."
"Choices" is a perfect title for a CD which asks you to ponder such questions - whether it''s in what we can do to make the world around us better, in reflecting on a way to be during a time of loss, or whether or not we can stop to recognize what the world around us is trying to tell us.
Edward Dee presents it... the choice is yours regarding what to do with it.
