Along the Beauty Way

It is our wish that Along the Beauty Way will transport you to a peaceful place in nature, where you can feel calm and inspired.

In creating these new songs, we focused on our unique musical connection as brothers who have composed music together for many years.


The songs were creating in our studio by playing guitar, flute and piano together and then allowing the music to guide us.


By combining these instruments with ambient textures of keyboards, other instruments and ethnic sounds, we created a soothing soundscape that evokes the spaciousness and serenity of the desert southwest.


After you hear the new songs, we would love to hear your comments either by email or on our Facebook, Instagram, X or TikTok posts about this release.

Can Time Skip a Beat?

The most familiar kind of time is easy to fill with work – a routine kind of time that doesn’t ask questions.  But what about the other kind of time that lets the spirit shine through (whatever that is), so essential, and so elusive?

How can we find that moment between the seconds, a moment beyond the so-many-somethings demanding to be done? Those somethings can be so good at telling us they’re more important than a beckoning sunset or warm evening breeze. But today, twilight has triumphed. Something must wait for nothing, because nothing is more wondrous than the whispering touch of that twilight breeze, just as the stars appear.

-- David Gordon

Sometimes No Means Yes

Do you ever feel it’s hard to say no, because you want your “everyone” to get what they want and find happiness?  Sometimes saying yes to every request doesn’t bring the positivity we intend; trying too hard to wish "yes" into being when it's not in the flow can clog up the whole thing.  This question comes up with creativity and inspiration too.  Sometimes just-plain-hard-work is what the creative spirit calls forth.  When that happens, it feels good to go with it. But trying to push the spirit to create too fast will not bring the fruit, only time and the sun and rain can do that.  In the garden, this lesson is learned again and again.

Too much fertilizer brings fast growth and at first, seems to bring health. But it’s an illusion. Tender new growth that comes too fast is a tasty meal to the pests.  When the soil is nutritious and balanced, rich with the stories of life that has come before and moved on, the growth will be strong in its own time; there will still be pests but they will not overrun.

Pushing too hard will not get us there faster, only harder.  A simple “no” when it's needed can work wonders, open space and time for inspiration, let the breath quiet and the new song be heard.

Don’t be deceived by what seems to be common sense...  the idea that “no” is always negative.  When “no” protects your Self from overwhelm, then it becomes positive –  a “no” that says “yes” to your life. 

-- David Gordon

The Harmony of Disharmony - The Power of Acceptance

When something happens in your day that reveals a conflict with another person or a situation that causes you pain it is always best to seek out the response to it that will solve the problem.  By solving the problem you are able to transform the disharmony to harmony.  But when we have the belief that this can always be accomplished if only we were conscious enough, aware enough, clever enough, creative enough or non-reactive enough, this is not always the case.   If you have empathy and leave you ego at the door, you can make it through most situations that have conflict by dis-arming the conflict and transforming it into at the very least an only uncomfortable experience instead of an actual conflict.

But part of the truth of life is that sometimes there is no harmonious path.  Sometimes there is no choice that will result in harmony.  When it comes to other people and situations that you can't control, it's important to remember to accept what is without judgment.  For reasons that we may not understand, life does sometimes contain conflicts that we can't always transform. 

Accepting that truth, does transform ourselves though because when we accept the world and everyone in it as it is, we are able to fully inhabit the present moment and feel the perfection of the world as it is evolving in this moment without needing it to be different.  This unconditional love for the world and everyone in it is in fact the harmony we seek. 

Once you are feeling that acceptance, then go ahead and seek out the most harmonious path.  When you approach it without lust of result you may find that you are able to transform it and if not it will not be a source of your own disharmony.
