Whispering Mind is a guitar-based instrumental album inspired by the iconic guitarist of U2, The Edge (a.k.a Dave Evans). After performing as The Edge in the U2 Tribute band Zootopia, I became intrigued with The Edge's sound and as an individual artist, apart from the whole if "U2." "What," I thought, "would a Bono -less album sound like?" Of course I had no idea and I still don't. But Whispering Mind was a journey to sounds and songs that would not have been possible without the devotion to not soloing (for the most part) and consideration for beats per minute delay settings.

I had heard the Edge enjoys the guitar playing of Joe Pass, so I covered the classic chord-melody arrangement of Blues for Alican.

Other treats await as well, including instrumental versions of Where the Streets of No Name, Until the End of the World, and All Along the Watchtower.
