Rise to the Night update: from my Blog page on my website www.jbrian.ca/blog/

Feel like a scrolling-free 120-minute escape from mainstream?

I don't consider completing 77 trips around the sun, today, as being old. It's still 4.5 years under the average Canadian lifespan. I have looked at each year, of my 77, as the best, with yet the best, one year in front of me. So, I want to share with you, a song I wrote, that explains in melancholy, if not self-deprecating terms, why I feel, it's GOOD GETTING OLDER. https://youtu.be/B-KdPUrgg1M

Rise to the Night is the album paired with After the Fall as part of a 28-song recording adventure, completing the release of Project 2026. An hour and three-minute itinerary that would be best enjoyed as an intimate one-on-one listening experience, arriving at a destination of your imagination.

Every YouTube Tuesday, since January 07 (release of After the Fall), I settle into escape and focus mode, stepping away from 'mainstream' for an hour, with my Bose headphones, my MAC laptop and a shot of a favourite libation. The impactful difference this past Tuesday was, for the first time, I watched on my new Samsung 65" The Frame TV. And, for the first time, I pulled up my Rise to the Night playlist, just completed uploading to my channel. The album that I am releasing this Sunday, April 19. The next 63 minutes proved to be the audio/visual experience O.F.M.Y.L.I.F.E.

My webite is is updated. Everything you need or want to know about me, (my career that is) is there. This link is for my blog page and it includes some info that I know will interest my most senior same old faces. PS: 54 years rather (yes it's been updated)
