These Rooms
The songs we sing and the stories we tell…
These rooms have heard them all before…
“These Rooms” was inspired by the Mabee House at the Mabee Farm Historic Site in Rotterdam Junction, NY. We have performed at the Mabee Farm many times over the years. One day we were performing at a music festival there and we had the opportunity to practice a bit in the old Mabee House. We were amazed and inspired by the way our music sounded in the old rooms with the old wood surrounding us. This song came out of that experience, based on the idea that whatever human situation we could write about, these old rooms have seen it all before.
“These Rooms” is the finale track on the Everest Rising EP Chasing Ghosts.
Melodies of Christmas
Everest Rising was featured in the 2013 CBS6 ‘Melodies of Christmas’ holiday extravaganza at Proctors Theater in Schenectady, NY. This is an annual benefit for the Melodies Center for Childhood Cancer at Albany Medical Center. There were four live performances, and the show was also taped and broadcast in the New York Capital Region on Christmas Eve and again on Christmas Day.
