Details:
This album is great for those morning and evening commutes that most working people have to deal with 5 days a week. It will help keep your stress levels down and focus your mind on more positive things than how the guy in front or beside you is driving. Truett has had lots of feedback that this CD has calmed the road rage in many a commuter. It''s also a great CD to just sit back and ''chill-out'' to. Enjoy!
-------------------------------
Truett comes from Texas and has lived and played throughout most of the western United States. Her mother was a pianist and encouraged her to begin playing when she was a child. However, she never developed a serious interest in music until she was 13 and picked up an electric guitar. After 3 years of playing guitar and bass in a rock band she returned home to the piano. For the next 6 years she played the bar scenes with an acoustic upright piano miked with violin pickups. The piano gave way to synthesizers and a Hammond organ in the 70''s and touring began in earnest. After spending 10 years on the road with a variety of rock n roll bands, Truett moved to LA. While living in Hollywood she recorded Dreams of the Neophyte, her first totally solo project. Some of the songs from this CD were written when she was a teenager, long before the term ''New Age'' had been coined.
Truett''s major influences are the great art rock keyboardists of the 70''s - Keith Emerson (ELP), Rick Wakeman (Yes), Patrick Moraz (The Nice, Yes, Moody Blues) and Kerry Minnear (Gentle Giant). Since she majored in music in college, she was also deeply influenced by Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Litz and Scriabin. Her musical career has taken her from folk music to heavy metal. However, her first love has always been what is now called New Age music. She has written this style of music all of her musical life.
Truett is currently working on two new New Age CDs while performing with rock bands in North Texas playing alternative, classic rock, and blues. Her virtuoso performances are known to be quite flamboyant. She now has a film project in house as well.
