about

Written for the People of Japan in the wake of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. Dedicated to their strength and spirituality with love and compassion. Back to the One

"Back to the One" is a tour de force, a highly original song about resilience in the face of disaster. Using a quote from the Persian poet Rumi as a catalyst, the tune incorporates a subliminal noise, which eventually grows louder and reveals itself as a newscast about a devastating tsunami. McCarthy and Sylvester sound like a choir of angels as they soar above this heartbreaking story, illustrating how the human spirit can ascend even in the face of tragedy. The song is a fine example of tastefully integrating jazz and electronics, and it's also a beautiful statement about the power of the human soul." Florence Wetzel for All About Jazz, 2012
