To Begin Again was recorded in 2007 just weeks before the birth of Chris’s Son Henry. Throughout the album you will feel within the music the personal transition to fatherhood as well as the effects of global transitions at home. With 16 or so musicians contributing to this project, you will experience still just a slice of what the rich musical community in Michigan has to offer.
