Liner Notes:

I have to start by thanking Shawn Herbert for his excellent animation and filming on this. I think we created something pretty special together, and I'm really happy with how this turned out.
I've always loved this song and always loved Van Gogh's art, so when I learned that Shawn had some animating skills, I thought this would be the perfect project to let him do his thing. He really killed it, and I'm so grateful for the time he spent on this.

I had the privilege of going to the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam last year, which was a thrill. Conspicuously (and sadly) absent from that collection is "The Starry Night", which is in New York's Museum of Modern Art. I plan to pay that painting a visit this fall on my trip to New York (where I'll be performing with Jeff Hall on 9/29/17 http://www.brownpapertickets.com/even.... And while I can't bring the painting back to the Netherlands with me on the next trip, I can at least bring this song. :)

I'd also like to thank Don McLean for this beautiful song. It's a masterpiece in its own right.
And thanks to you for listening/watching, and for helping spread the music.
Until the next song,

-Mike
