Gregg’s
long-awaited follow-up to his100-instrument “A Christmas Collection”
is a tribute to man’s best friend.
Enlisting the help of several dog-loving friends (and fantastic
musicians) - Stephen Bennett, Joe Morgan, Carter Lancaster, Brad Hoyt
and Frank Doucette – the friends created 16 "instrumental musical
snapshots" of the dogs they’ve known and loved, and telling their
stories in the fully illustrated, full color booklet. Fingerstyle
guitar champ Don Alder calls Miner “the Frank Zappa of the harp
guitar.” Miner prefers to
think of his music as “lovely, but quirky.” The "Dog
Project" was the idea of Gregg’s wife's Jaci Rohr, who among many
other talents, has a pet products side business, Two
Little Dogs. The couple co-produced this album as a tribute to
our four-legged friends, and are donating a portion of each CD sale to
dog-related charities. The other contributors are all
part of the harp guitar community and there is plenty of harp guitar on
this album, along with 6-string guitar, harp, hammered dulcimer, piano,
and a few other unusual odds and ends. All tunes are brand new, except
for 3 of Stephen Bennett's 4 tunes (that’s right – this features a
brand new, unreleased Bennett harp guitar piece!), and Joe's, which are
new, edited re-mixes. Canadian fingerstyle wiz Carter Lancaster,
pianist and Yamaha recording artist Brad Hoyt, and newcomer Frank
Doucette all contributed new pieces about their beloved pets. Read more about our friends on the Artists
page. The tunes run the instrumental
gamut from pastoral sketches to chases, rock & roll-over to wagtime
- fun for the whole family! Produced by Jaci Rohr and Gregg
Miner 15 tracks plus a surprise bonus track! You'll laugh, you'll cry, your dogs will wag their tails. More about the co-producers:
Besides running her Two Little Dogs business, Jaci Rohr also works in
product development for Cesar Millan, Inc. When Cesar's show
"The Dog Whisperer" first went into production, Gregg wrote
"Cesar's Arrival Theme" (listen when he gets out of the car
and runs up to the client’s house...). The show is now in its
6th Season on National Geographic cable, and also on DVD.
Gregg - known worldwide as “the harp guitar pope” - is also
president of non-profit The Harp Guitar Foundation. |
