Original compositions by six Pacific Northwest musicians with eclectic palettes and influences.

The album features compositions which range in style from Hagberg's sultry ballad, Blues for Julia, through Coker's Brazilian-tinged Close Enough to Kiss, the Northwest fusion of Cooper's Copland, and a tango by Bergeron, to Moore's classic toe-tapper, Pépé Linque. All of it is anchored and propelled by Lear's powerful and sensitive drumming.
