Scott Currier's trio recording reveals an empathetic kinship between three musicians who convey honesty and humility in their offerings. The healing vibration of this music peacefully fortifies the human spirit and I deeply admire Scott, Jeremy, and Sean for sharing their wonderful talents, dedication, and focus as they shine true expansive beauty into our world.
