DAVID ELIAS - HALF AN HOUR AWAY

In the spirit of Independent Acoustic music, this is a live studio, digitally recorded CD. The "studio" used was a great performance theater in Half Moon Bay called Mel Mello. It''s on the San Mateo coast, about 15 miles south of San Francisco (10 miles north of the infamous San Gregorio).

The sessions recorded capture the dynamic and captivating sound of David Elias & The Great Unknown featuring David Elias on acoustic guitar, vocals and harmonica; Lisa Kelly on mandolin, and Gary MacArthur on flute and sax. These favorite local performers give a new meaning to the words "acoustic" and "folk". Powerful lyrics are underscored by melodic accompaniments as other layers and harmonies are interwoven throughout the disc.

David Elias has been recognized for the past 5+ years for his ability to write high impact material delivered in a sparse but engaging message. Read reviews of his work at https://www.tradebit.com

Touring Scotland with the Peninsula Scottish Fiddlers (https://www.tradebit.com), David got the inspiration for producing the Half and Hour Away CD. It will inspire you to pay more attention to what is actually being said in some of the popular music today, as well as take you back to memories of some of those special tunes that made think and grow as a person, sometime way back when...

Listen to this or any of the other independent discs from David Elias. As a FAME reviewer says: "So, don''t ask ten years from now, when everyone else has discovered Elias, why you didn''t read about him before, because here he is: we should all be listening to Elias..."

Here''s what the GODS OF MUSIC had to say recently about this (https://www.tradebit.com?rID=5192):

"David Elias has a smooth silky voice. ''Half an Hour Away'' is a beautiful piece played with the grace of an old pro. This steady handed master of the guitar brings sanctification to folk music. Elias adds a whimsical unpredictable flavor to this song. Could it be the magical sounding penny whistle heard in-between each thought provoking lyrical line? Or is it the colorful acoustic guitar playing? Answer, all of the above!

David Elias is a talented musician and a songwriter with much to say. The best part is, it''s all worth hearing. So many songs are not. This is a song you would want to own. Buy this one. Play it when you''re stuck on the freeway on your way home from a hellish day. Great Song." - Sara Ann Smith

The newest release is a historical piece of work called "The Window". This Super Audio CD (SACD) was the first indie (unsigned) artist release as a hybrid multichannel SACD recording. It is a killer acoustic band recorded live in a killer studio in the ultra-high Sony DSD format. A stereo mix plays on any CD player. The surround sound (multichannel) mix plays on SACD systems setup for 5.1 surround sound. Either way, critics have raved about this one and you will probably like it too...
