Guitarist Paul Geller''s debut CD, "A Walk Down Familiar Paths" released in May of 2005 features 9 original songs all played on acoustic guitar, parlor guitar, slide guitar, dobro and mandolin. Unplugged and without bass and drums these songs feature a wide variety of open tunings and organic melodies
I am still playing lots of electric guitar of course but my love for the acoustic guitar sounds took over and I started writing songs and exploring various open tunings and the final result was" A Walk Down Familiar Paths". I was fortunate to work with Guitarist Neal Harris to record, mix and master the cd. He is an amazing musician, great friend and has a great pair of ears! Neal has worked with many great artists and engineered the grammy nominated "The Water Garden" by Alex DeGrassi. I was Inspired by the great acoustic players Jerry Douglas, Leo Kottke, Ledward Kaapana, Keola Beamer and Alex De Grassi when making this cd. The music is written about special people and beautiful places that are very important to me. Often I found myself hiking the paths near my home with my dog Janna and feeling really inspired to write songs that remind me of the people and places that I enjoy so much, some near and some far off in the Pacific Ocean. The title " A Walk Down Familiar Paths " is my tribute to Janna who became sick during the recording of the cd but was around during all the long nights hanging on the couch composing these songs. When you give this cd a listen - I hope it takes you on "A Walk Down Familiar Paths" to those places that touch your soul...
