Interview:

Music has the power to take you out of your present natural surroundings into a different place that we could refer to as a “spiritual” place. Either that is your heart, your mind, your “God-space”, or even memories and feelings that are kept locked up. I believe it’s more than just the sound, although the sound of music, the chords used, and the way instruments are played, can create an unforgettable atmosphere that helps to stir something inside. Yet there has got to be a connection with the performer that also is significant. It could be a connection with the listener or a connection with their own memories and thoughts, or even a connection with the spirit of God.
