HEALING: a journey from there to here

From 1994 until 2002 Michael Hughes and Roger Brainard wrote, recorded and performed as the acoustic/electric duo ELEPHANT's GERALD.

Healing is a 26 song retrospective of Michael's and Roger’s time spent as the ELEPHNAT’s GERALD and is drawn from 5 CD’s (unavailable) produced during that time. This collection includes a few songs not on previous works and two live (bonus) versions.

'HEALING' reflects personal experience and the greater human condition as only the ELEPHANT's GERALD could do. Michael’s lyrics cut like a scalpel to the core of eternal questions while Roger’s arrangements and experimental guitar work provide a powerfully emotive backdrop.

Called ‘music for the thinker' the songs on this collections range from Michael’s haunting solo performance of “Lost on the way to the Ball’ to the Electric Rocker “King on Every Corner” and all points in between. The result is an enduring and listenable work that is rare in our cookie cutter world.

‘HEALING’ was a long time in coming. Roger and Michael ‘diversified’ in 2002 and it was only in 2008 when times and seasons seemed right to resume a journey that started last century. As achieved material was reviewed for this collection many song ideas and non finished works were discovered. Who knows, maybe we will see more new music from the ELEPHANT's GERALD yet!!.
