Eric Garcia has written an album of songs for his mother called Songs For Shifra: ““My mom had a profound effect on me, teaching me about art, introducing me to many artists, taking me to galleries and analyzing paintings. When she developed dementia, she reached a point where we couldn’t talk anymore, so I would go and play guitar for her and kiss her forehead. She liked that – still does. She played these songs for me when I was young, and now I do it for her.” You’ll enjoy the sweet groove of Johnny’s Blues.
Kelly Carpenter has an interesting story. He wrote his first song at the age of 5, but grew up to pursue a more traditional career in computer programming. However, he never stopped working with on his passion. In the Nineties, he wrote a popular worship song called Draw Me Closer that, to this day, is sung by vast numbers of people around the world each week and was recorded by Michael W. Smith and John Tesh, among others. A repetitive-motion injury finally forced him to stop his full-time programming gig. And since then, he has pursued music full-time. From his latest album, Passages, check out Summer Rain.
Alex Chudnovsky was born in Russia, but his family fled in 1978 with the intention of moving to America. They got as far as Austria only to change plans and decided on Israel as their new home. But tensions there led them to move again, and after illegally crossing the Mediterranean, they ended up in Australia. At the age of 17, his brother bought a guitar and, drawn by his love of heavy metal music, he began to learn to play. Over time, his interest shifted to classical guitar, and eventually to composing his own music. His second album is called Renaissance Of Life, and we’re pleased to be able to share the title track, as well as A Touch Of Serenity.
