"Sleepwalking On The Highwire"

Tree: One of the earliest songs Brett and I wrote together. It feels great to finish it so many years later."

Brett: This is likely my favorite piece of music Tree and I have ever done together. Actually, I think it's the best music I've ever written, period. This song was written long ago with Tree on piano and me on guitar. In my head, the guitar part had always been a big string arrangement, but we could never have afforded it at the time. The song sat dormant, along with maybe 100 other songs that we never recorded, for years. This had always made me very sad to think about because I obviously love all the music Tree and I have done and it hurt me to think that the songs were never recorded properly and that nobody would be able to hear them. Anyway, when Tree and I agreed to "reunite", we knew that we could now record many of these songs properly, as originally intended. When I first recorded the live string section on this song, I can't even describe how happy it made me. When they left, I played the song over and over and....I'll admit it...it was difficult to hold back the tears. So...because of all of this, of course it had to be the first song we wanted to present after all these years away.
