Am I in it? is it now? Is it what comes after this life?

I've lived so many lives within this life.

I grew up singing and writing songs as early as I can remember. I was writing words before I knew words, making them up and singing them.

I started a band when I was 15 with my best friend, Orenda Fink. We named it Punchanella. Later we grew into a pop band and called ourselves Little Red Rocket. As we honed our craft, we also found our music to be cathartic and a way to cope with the death of someone close to us. Our music changed as it mirrored our lives and with the change we became Azure Ray. We came into ourselves as Azure Ray.

But as time equals growth and change, after many records and many, many years together I started my solo career. I loved the freedom I had to explore different genres within a single record. Every record I released since then has been a reflection of where life has taken me.

Fast forward to 2016.

A move back to California and a husband and two children later I've found myself looking at my favorite release of all of my work. I rummaged through my life, taking parts of my past lives and intertwining them with my current life. I've imagined my life beyond what is now. I've taken all that I've learned both musically and lyrically (with the help of my incredibly talented friends) and put it into this record. I kept asking myself, "If I die tomorrow, what would I want my last record to say?"

Artists: Maria Taylor, UMM, Louis Schefano
