Tyme, Aspects of Home

Sometimes I am lucky enough to share with you an AMAZING MUSIC CD...

This is one of those times!

I was introduced to the music of Cedar Breaks from the music CD included in the book...Upon Destiny's Song.


TYME, ASPECTS OF HOME is the debut album from the new band Cedar Breaks.

"The album is a groundbreaking musical tribute to the exploration of life and home. It examines our relationships with each other, and with the world around us. The album is a collage of strong harmonies, beautiful instrumentation, and thought provoking lyrics."

Their music is so beautiful it will resonate with your heart. 

One of my favorite songs on this CD is called PRAYER~ "Prayer is a song that give thanks for the experiences of life and how it builds character. A prayer that thanks and doesn't ask. True gratitude." 



Other songs include: 
Believe, Morning, Set To Wander, Rainy Day, Home, Snow, Always Mine, Tyme, Aspects, Eutaw, Twilight, Strong, and No Place

This is a CD you will listen to over and over again!
