Actually this was kind of a series of fortunate events (ha) it was one of those: one thing led to another: Dave wanted to have a CD of his own music just for fun. He would play all the instruments himself but he can't sing, so he set out to find people to do it with him.
He ran across his old friend Tim, and talked with him about the project. Tim was interested, so he wrote some lyrics and they got together and loved it.
As they were putting it together they would play what they had for other musicians Harry, Judy, and David. They loved each others interpretation and they found that common bond. They could just be themselves.
