New album with Joel Thome

This album is the 3rd with my dear friend, mentor, and collaborator - the legend, Joel Thome. JOURNEY WITHOUT PAUSE was concocted over a series of sessions at Joel’s apartment overlooking the East River.

While working together on this album, we strongly felt it as a dedication to loved ones who have left the planet. Searching for a title that was fitting in Sri Aurobindo's Savitri, something we often turn to for inspiration, we found a phrase that we think discusses the eternality of life, a "Journey Without Pause." This also ties to our fascination with physics. According to string theory, the basic building blocks of the universe are dynamic particles that constantly vibrate, implying that at a fundamental level, nothing is ever at rest. And as we know from the first law of thermodynamics, energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another, and transformations are fundamental to all processes.

"Our life’s repose is in the Infinite; It cannot end, its end is Life Supreme. Death is a passage, not the goal of our walk..."
