John MacMurchy

 

 

 

"It's been a long time since an album has surfaced with the spirit and the sound of the old masters. The feeling of the album was done out of a deep respect and admiration for an era that has too soon passed us by. A time when music was made just to exist, not to be sold.
John's vision of music exudes clarity: of companionship between musicians, of sound, of musical ideas, of concept, of execution, of music. It's an honest sound that John uses to converse with the listener. Nothing is hidden. It's all there on the table. Heart. Experience. Pleasure. Life."
