Push That River - Instrumental

Story Behind The Song

It's a song I wrote acknowledging that some things have their own pre-determined course and, because they can't controlled, there is no point in trying to force it. Although this song could be called a "break-up" song, it was/is intended to be a "peace offering" rather than a bitter end.

Song Description

With intricate finger-picking and a haunting 12-string slide guitar this is a simple acoustic song that is sparse in its instrumentation yet starkly sentimental and poignantly emotional.
