New Song - Silence of the Sages
Hey everyone,
Happy Summer!
I am about to hit the road this weekend for the 3nd summer festival date on my Zero Emission Musician tour. This time I will be at Root Fest near Floyd VA. Then on to Buffalo NY for the Infringement Festival. If you would like to sponsor a Concert In Your Home with you, your friends and Rick Denzien, Please reach out so we can schedule around the festivals.
Wrote the song last year in June and it really takes me a year to get a song out, and yes I am way, way behind. But this song is far enough along that it will speak to your heart. You can buy the song at the Rick Denzien Fan Store. http://www.nimbitmusic.com/RickDenzien go into the store and look for the Radiate CD, you'll see the song there.
We started recording the song on my phone in January up in Nappa Valley CA, couple of days later we started recording in LA. . You remember I did that crazy 8,070 mile record breaking music tour in a model 3 Tesla. Super Cool, and Zero Climate Change Pollution.

The Lyrics and chords to Silence of the Sages are below.... Joining me singing is my great songwriting and singing partner Debra Lee from Lyra Project. She also helped out on the keys. I played the pretty lick on the right... Eddie Hedges from the multi platinum selling "Union of Blesid Souls" and Chad Watson of Bass guitar. My guitar guy Allen James and I are doing the guitars, he is panned right I am panned Left.
Enjoy the song, write me, leave comments and thanks for supporting the purchase of the song. It's the only way we can keep going.
Be safe!
