It’s not every day you get to wake up to music as sweet and soothing as this.

Greater Alexander knows a little about the see-saw of life.

You know..that constant struggle and sway we all experience between the light side and the dark side.

Throughout the new album, Greater Alexander creates a peaceful journey through tangled webs of emotion using only his acoustic guitar, his fingers, and one of the calmest sounding male voices I have heard in a long time.

Positive Love is an experience. One that I needed this morning.

A part of the refreshed and once-again-budding folk music scene in Michigan, Greater Alexander manages to capture the things we think and feel into sound.

Exploration and discovery occur from the opening “Any Way Out Of It” to the closing “In The Stillness of Water”. By the time the music stops, you feel as peaceful as a quiet pond tucked away in the rolling foothills.

In the spirit of Nick Drake, Cat Stevens, and Bon Iver, I put Greater Alexander on par with this class of acts. It is simply beautiful songwriting put to beautiful music and the end result is magic.

Holding over 30 different job positions in various industries throughout his life, Greater Alexander knows a little about finding a balance in life. Positive Love is his balance.

…and for right now it’s helping me find mine.

From his bio:

His songs encompass all the tools required to preach love to listeners: Classical and acoustic guitars, piano, African and Latin percussion instruments. Arranged and recorded with some of Detroit’s best musicians from bands like Flint Eastwood, Passalacqua and Will Sessions.

Positive Love is a must own. Go grab your copy (on CD or Vinyl).
