Many thanks to all of my friends and family that I just do not have room to list here. I love you all and could not have created this music without you!Tracks:IllusionsIllusions is the first piece we wrote. It is the culmination of many hours of experimentation in what would become our approach to writing music. This piece was our first opportunity to speak our own language, even as the music took on a life of its own. First PrinciplesI once had a physics professor who, whenever I got stuck solving a problem, would say in his thick Irish brogue, “Jason, in these problems you must always remember to go back to first principles.” That advice has served well in many areas of life. Thanks, Dr. Neill. - JBOf What WasDon’t be sorry it’s over; instead, be glad that it happened. - JBHavenHaven is the result of a very stressful time in my life. Weary and under intense pressure, I sat at the piano and poured my emotions into the keys. As Haven grew, it became a refuge and a deeply personal expression of the feelings I couldn’t convey in words. Haven marks the beginning of a three-movement journey, followed by Wait and Cloudbreak. - MSWaitAt the end of Haven it is still raining, and questions remain without easy answers. When we come to God in prayer, He frequently gives one of three responses: Yes, No, or Wait. The last is usually the most difficult… CloudbreakCloudbreak is the final resolution to the tension in Haven and the stillness in Wait. The storm has passed, and the sun is breaking through the clouds. All that remains is to close your eyes and be at peace. For HerFor my beautiful wife, Carolyn. I love you with all that I am, always and forever. - MSThose Who WaitFor my sister Emily and her husband Jason Jones. - JBStone Canvas® is a registered trademark of Stone Canvas Music, LLC.Recorded and mixed by Stone Canvas Music, LLC.Mastered by Sage Audio, 100B, 2 Music Cir S Nashville, TN 37203 info@sageaudio.comVisit our website at: www.stonecanvasmusic.comContact: jason@stonecanvasmusic.com matthew@stonecanvasmusic.com
