'Grace' came to me as a gift at a time when I was feeling down. Someone emailed me to say they had a still born baby girl 10 years earlier and listened to my music to help her recover. She named the baby Grace. Now, 10 years later she has a daughter called Sophie Grace and together they sit and listen my music to remember her baby sister. The message to me was that my music had stood the test of time and that the most important thing I can do with it is to touch and help others.

lyrics
If I could be with you I would, but you are far away, from here.
On the other side of the rainbow, I see you smile, through my tears.
To be with Grace, To live with Grace, Always Grace
One day I'll find you, long way to go,
sometimes I look for you, over the rainbow.
To be with Grace, To live with Grace, Always Grace
To be with Grace, To live with Grace, Always Grace

Performed at Carnegie (Weill Hall) NY, Echoes/NPR Radio, 'Grace' on Grammy Winning album 2014.
This is a beautiful album. It reminds me of the ‘golden era’ of Windham Hill circa 84-89
It’s lyrical and contemplative. It’s sentimental without being schmaltzy. My favorite track is Meadow, but they are all great!
Scott Rice
