“My Love” A Story That Never Broke.Some stories don’t end when people go their separate ways. Sometimes, they evolve.Speaking on the record, Manny say’s “My Love” is one of the most personal records I’ve written. It’s inspired by my parents, who’ve lived in different countries for over 15 years, yet somehow never let distance redefine what they mean to each other.

That quiet consistency stuck with me.This track sits as the third chapter in my Journey project, following on from “Holding On.” Where that song explored separation, “My Love”…

That album featured the International Bluegrass Music Association award-winning torchbearers, The Po’ Ramblin’ Boys and that collaboration is resurrected here.Lauderdale was so…
