10 MP3 Songs
FOLK: Folk Pop, POP: Folky Pop
Details:
Holly Reed''s finger style guitar, rich vocals, and catchy melodies create a new sound in folk music. This new CD, "The Journey," is a group of songs Holly wrote using the travel journals of Benjamin J. Gunn, 1865-1939.
The title track takes you back to 1886 when Ben, at age 21, decided to leave his home in Arcadia, Kansas, and travel out to see the Pacific Ocean. "The Mighty Ocean" reveals his first impressions of Los Angeles as he arrived in that city in 1886. He fell in love with traveling, and eventually visited every county in every state in the U.S.
When he returned home from the Pacific, he planned yet another trip down south to Mississippi. "Storm" reflects his reaction to racial strife in the deep South in the late 1800s. While traveling through the South, he fell in "Love." Ben Gunn and his bride lived in Arcadia and ran the local newspaper for many years. "Cruel Power" & "Stop and Think" are from his commentaries on social conscience. To read more about Holly Reed and her great, great, great uncle, Ben Gunn, visit her web site:
