about

Five Songs written in an attempt to find words and music that tell the story "of finding a way out of the day to day routine" to desribe the adventurous spirit in all humans - and the idea of a global human who can assimilate all types, all religions and move freely about- however that is merely a hypothetical map..for something that can only secretly live inside of us.... other wise, it causes SUSPICION!

I humbly admit these songs came before the terrorism we live with today....
But imagine when explorers roamed the Indian continent on elephant, journeyed up the Nile, people met and talked with strangers,
Rode the Silk Road by camel... exotic -yes, dangerous, yes....

On my way to perform in Germany, I met a man in London with a n amazingly wise face, and long cashmere coat, I called him Mr. Cairo - he didn't mind!
