Singles
Time of Our Lives
In 1999, Bill and I released our first fully-produced album, Time of Our Lives, on CD and cassette. We performed at folk festivals, coffeehouse venues, and Unity and New Thought churches. In 2000, we went back into the studio to record a children’s CD, and then a few years later, recorded chants for worship, which we never released.
Then, in 2013, we went back into the studio as The Backroads Trio to record Go Find Your Solace with our friend Di Albright, who provided the third part of the trio. We also recorded “Song for Mom,” a single I wrote for my Mom who was in the last stage of her dementia.
