Forest Grove, by Allison Au Quartet

Forest Grove

by Allison Au Quartet

supported by

Marsha L Fitzgerald This collection also starts out strong and full of promise with the lively "Tides." Though it's overall more introspective than "Wander Wonder," each song creates a totally different mood ranging from lively, to calming and reflective, to adventurous. I love listening to this while I'm driving through the countryside, on a long stretch of road, along a city skyline at night. Any time, really. It just works. Favorite track: Deluge.
