A piano and keyboard player for many years, including a stint in Austin Pop-Rock band The Damage Project, Alan released his solo piano album "Small Acts" in 2001 as music to prepare the mind and soul for the Sabbath. Music that helps to relax people and get them in touch with their spiritual side is important, especially in these tense times.
"It's not uncommon for my music to be used in ways that allow it to find it's way into a person's consciousness when their guard is down," Alan explains. "That's the most effective time to do soul work." So it's not surprising that Alan's music has been used by therapy, massage, and healing groups to help in relaxation and meditation exercises, made its way into soundtracks for student films, in radio advertisements, and onto Jewish-oriented radio stations.
"A song from my first album "Fuel For the Fire" ended up as background music for some TV college basketball highlights," Alan muses. "Now that's a novel approach to spirituality."
"Ultimately it's about a connection to the divine," Alan says. "Many people define their day, and their lives, by the things that distract them from what really makes them happy. If a little bit of music can help to center someone, to remind them of what their true source of meaning is, and I can contribute to that, then I've done what I'm supposed to do."
