06 Paradoxes (05:16)

Songwriter: Nick Payne

Publisher: Troubadours of Divine Bliss Music, BMI

Our dear friend and fellow singer-songwriter in Louisville, KY, Nick Payne, played this song for us several years ago. "Paradoxes" broke our hearts open as such an insightful song about a relationship ending. It amazed how us how he captured the heartbreak of knowing someone so intimately and then never knowing them at all.

We slightly adjusted his musical arrangement and started playing this out at performances. It resonates with people and they requested that we put it on our next recording. This was recorded LIVE, in the first take. It was our first time singing this song with pianist, Richard Shulman. We enjoyed the dynamics of working with Richard to capture the raw intimacy of this song.
