Since half of the songs on this album are “electric” ( Drums, Bass, Electric Guitar) and half the songs were Acoustic Ballads, the instrumentation was self evident. What happened along the way was, the more I brought the Cello, Violin and Vocal into the process, the more the ballads became special. What I want to convey is that even though these instruments were selected initially to be part of the process, the more we worked on the material the more I realized how much depth they were adding. So much so, that it became apparent that the more we expanded their role, the better the project became.
