After several years of composing, performing and experimenting with the guitar's six strings I'm finally (almost) ready to present my debut album to all of you.
The album consists of 9 instrumental tracks all performed on an acoustic steel string guitar. No loops are added only six strings and ten fingers are what makes the sound you're about to hear. These compositions are by far the best work I've ever made.
ABOUT CHRISTIAN BROCK
In 2015 I released my debut EP "The Ride" (https://bit.ly/TheRideEP). Later in 2017, I released the single "The Well" (http://bit.ly/CBTheWell) which also is to be found re-recorded on the new album.

I've furthermore have had the pleasure of sharing the stage with numerous of amazing guitarists among other - Thomas Leeb, Casper Esmann, RafQu and Salomon Jakobsson.

ABOUT THE ALBUM
The tunes on this album have it's roots in the silent moments, the chaotic evenings, the sleepless nights and the crazy and tiresome weekdays. The tunes have been a musically diary for the tears that were stuck and the smiles that were sent off, maybe, a bit too late. Together they represent a wordless novel about love, sorrow, happiness and thoughtfulness.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
All the tracks on the album have a profound emotional story to tell. Though without the words of lyrics I really wanted to tell these stories. I, therefore, decided to produce 6 professionally made music videos with an exciting parallel story to really show and tell what these tunes are all about and what they mean to me. Through this project, I have been blessed with a ton of amazing and talented friends and acquaintances to help me tell these stories in the best possible way.
To really tell these stories furthermore I decided that the physical release will be of an alternative kind. I will not be releasing the album on traditional formats such as CD and Vinyl but instead as a folding booklet filled with descriptive texts about each tune on the album. Inside of the folding booklet, you will find a download code to the album as well.
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
This album has until this day been funded entirely by myself alone, but as we slowly step into the final round before the release I feel the need to stretch out my folded hands hoping that you will help me finish this project and make my dream come true.
With your help, I will be able to produce the Folding Booklet, print t-shirts and other merchandise, finish the music videos, transcribe guitar tabs and promote the album all around the world.
