4 stars Good choice in ever groving prog arena ladies and gentlemen, you should check this record. But beware, hard/heavy/metal prog lovers will be probably disappointed.

From a humble piano beginnings of first track, indeed named "From the Start" we can start to listen nice piece of soft prog. Well, as you probably know too, it's hard to define genre of music. Britney Spears will be pop for sure, but this can be said about Michael Jackson too. And difference in quality is clearly to see. Same with this one. Crossover prog, one can imagine something similar to eclectic.

This one has mostly acoustic guitar(s), but not limited only to them. There is of course electric guitar too and typical prog instrument, keyboard or some kind of synthetizer. But acoustic feeling overwhelmed me. There is also some kind of suite, "All Along This Land", spanning over first half of tracks. Some good melodies, some good improvisation, don't expect lyrics everywhere. By the way, pleasant voice.
