Back in the studio with Darren Walters at Stonehouse Studio, Allister set to work to record an album with a solidly Smooth Jazz sound.

The album garnered another Song of the Year nomination at the Canadian Smooth Jazz Awards for “The Tip of my Tongue”, as well as several awards in Mike Pinder’s SongWars songwriting competitions.
All songs written and arranged by Allister Bradley (SOCAN).
