Amanda's personal liner notes to her album, Beyond Boundaries: As I pondered ways to integrate my musical worlds, a friend introduced me to bassist Dave Morgan and encouraged us to explore our mutual interests. Beyond Boundaries is born from our bi-weekly forays into diverse corners of the musical universe. A steaming cup of tea always at arms’ length, and lots of breaks for conversation about the connective nature of art, Dave and I found our way into the essence of these songs. Rather than feel limited by the stark instrumentation of bass and voice, we found new freedom to explore any music that reached out and grabbed us, regardless of genre or style.
The thread that runs through the album is simply that these are songs that Dave and I love. They are songs that get to the very heart of the human experience, “the joy held with the pain” and the universal need to create from both the light and darkness of our lives. As Dave and I set out to make this recording, we decided to invite some friends to join us and bring their unique voice and flavor to some of the pieces. I invited you to go with us beyond the boundaries of genre, style, language, region and expectation, into the connective heart of music.
