Liner Notes

Thank you for taking an interest in our music. As you are reading this, you are now experiencing the final stage of a process that began in the fall of 2018. This process started in my imagination, picturing how the seed of an idea can grow and blossom into a full story. Engraved on a piece of paper, it took on form in the material world. Then, it went through my band members’ imaginations, taking on a unique shape in each of their minds. Next, it was released through our instruments into the world, then passed through the studio equipment to the audio engineer’s ears, and now it’s entering your own imagination. 

Looking back at the past year, I see that the process of piecing this project together facilitated expressions of love, humor, and creativity. I wrote a tune for our baby boy, who will be born by the time the record is out. Hery, Caio, Isaac, and Max, who are like family to me, worked their own magic to breathe life into these stories. When you listen to the album, I hope they will take on new meanings of your own.

Dedicated to my wife Nelli, my home, my everlasting source of love and support.
​
Dor Herskovits
