“Coming Home”
Thoughts from Gabe…
“I’m so happy to finally put this song on a studio recording. It’s been around for years and even appears on my “True Live” EP, but this is the first studio recording of it. The song really hits home for me because I often have this feeling when I am heading home after a time of traveling for music. We start and end the track with some insects we recorded in a field in Tennessee where I live. Everyone needs to go home at some point—whether it’s to a physical home or a spiritual home. We cannot stay in a whirlwind forever. At some point we have to land”.

Thoughts from Gabe. . .

“Mad Machine”
This is a song about working too much. The idea started when I was thinking about a recent tour in Europe. I was so exhausted from how much I had toured and performed and worked throughout the year that, even though I was in beautiful Paris, France, I was too tired to get out of my hotel room bed and see the city. This is a song about going past your limits and acting more like machines than the human beings we are. That kind of thing can only go on for so long.

Thoughts from Gabe. . .

“Passing Through”
“This song has some melancholy in it for sure. I wrote it about the unsettledness and loneliness of constant touring—when you feel like you are everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Musically, this one is a nod to Tom Waits, Leon Russell, and Randy Newman.”

Thoughts from Gabe. . .
“Finally Got It Right”
“This song is a celebration. It’s a fun, funky kind of thing I wrote about turning a corner—personally, professionally. It’s a way of saying, ‘hey, it’s been a broken and frustrating road, but I’m in a good place right now.’ It’s a happy song for the happy moments in our lives when we feel like all the hard work and tough lessons we’ve had to learn are finally paying off, and we are reaping what we sowed and making wiser choices.”
