about

This imagines walking through a night-time snowstorm across a dark, windy landscape, drawn by the promise of a warm glimmer on the horizon. The song emerged while I was in a Celtic/Irish/Scottish music phase. I made a "full band" demo of it, then it found new life solo-acoustic, played on a detuned 12-string in an open C tuning. It’s been a staple of my concert set for years, with an added mash-up of “The Whole of The Moon” (Waterboys). A couple people have detected a Yes influence in this, which I won’t deny (didn’t Jon Anderson write “Roundabout” by a Scottish lake?). However, (truth being exact), I was largely inspired from the music by the Scottish band Big Country and the U2 song "A Sort of Homecoming.”

The was recorded in December 2004 and released 2005 on the album TREADMARKS. Produced by Mark Doyon.
