Another Forte

Spinning up the Xforte
Only need another take
To figure out this melody
But here we are…

Xforte Records is a sight to see
If only we could really sing
You’d love the sound of Xforte

Time to wake me from this dream
We’ll pretend that it would seem
We found another forte

Xforte Records is here to stay
So spin around the Xforte

THE INAUGURAL TRACK, “Another Forte,” rolls out as a 5-pass, 12-bar E blues — kicking off with a gritty banjo-and-guitar riff and building through honky-tonk piano flair, a locked-in vocal trio, and a rhythm section that doesn’t flinch. It all culminates in a horn-fueled crescendo — a "time to wake me from this dream" just as it breaks through the clouds.

THE SESSIONS feature four distinctive cuts, each following the same melodic company jingle from a different vantage — together forming a kind of musical overture. "Another Forte" is both introduction and invitation to follow the narrow road we journey down.

NEXT STOP: a young prophet named Jeremiah takes the stage, sounding the trumpet with a warning of apostasy and abandonment…

Thanks for listening.
