'Place of Peace': JR Rhodes, Voice/Wayne Horvitz, Piano
In the spirit of peace for all, today I’m releasing a song I wrote called ‘Place of Peace’. Wayne Horvitz and I recorded this at The Royal Room in Seattle, WA on January 7, 2021. My heart was heavy from watching broadcasts of the event at the U.S. Capitol. So I felt moved to share this song in particular.
In my view, art is essential. It has the power to hold and uplift us through challenging times.

‘Place of Peace’ I’m releasing as 'pay as you will' so it’s available to all. If free works best for you now, that’s great. Please enjoy and feel free to spread the word. Thank you. If you feel moved to pay for the music, please pay as you will and feel free to spread the word. Thank you.
Many thanks @waynehorvitz @royalroomseattle
And thank you for tuning in.
