The Story of "No Love"
This is a story of how a song my band wrote 12 years ago continues to inspire me and I hope will now inspire others. The incredible story of how the song ‘No Love’ came to be began 12 year ago as a way to reflect and be motivated to look at the world differently. The first burst of writing was inspired by a decade that started with a major terrorist attack that changed the USA forever and ended with an economic crisis that nearly led to a second Great Depression. After several years of peace, prosperity, and strong economic recovery, dark clouds were visible on the horizon. After eight years of “Hope” danger signs indicated we might enter another period of “No Love”.

Hello, Hello... Bleeding Sadness
There are several stories that fueled the construction of "Hello, Hello". The first motivating spark was when I was compelled to write a poem in 2009 which I had titled "Hello Good Bye La La Land". It was inspired after spending several days with a friend of mine where through our encounters we had really bonded over sharing life stories connected with our passion for music. I would find my friend to be so interesting, wise and musically talented, yet so held back by internal torture which would make him lose all that wonderful wisdom. He would inspire and frustrate me at the same time by letting depressive reflective moments over take and supersede all the wonderful positive moments we had just shared.
