"It''s really lovely. So nice to hear actual harmony singing again on records. There''s a real need for this kind of thoughtful acoustic harmony-driven music right now." David Browne, Contributing Editor, Rolling Stone Magazine
"This is a beautiful CD. Great arrangements, great songs, wonderfully recorded, sung, performed. The quintessential Modern Folk CD." Dave Fields, award-winning producer and staff writer, Big City Rhythm and Blues Magazine
We call ourselves Return to the Dream because that’s exactly what we’ve done: we’ve gone back to doing the thing we love most - in our case, making music. We encourage everyone to make room in their lives for the thing that makes them the happiest. One of our goals is to start a community of people who want to share their stories of going back to, or forward toward, their dreams. If you’re on that road, drop us a line and tell us all about it. We’d love to hear from you.
And remember, as George Eliot so eloquently said, “It’s never too late to be who you might have been.”
Each member of Return to the Dream is a seasoned performer in his or her own right, but have come together to create a cohesive and unique "Eclectic Acoustic" sound with their original music.
