The new album: “Inverted Valentine”

The songs on “Inverted Valentine” cover a wide range of musical styles incoporating a variety of worldly musical instruments. From the Mariachi trumpet and Flamenco guitar of “Temptation”; to the stripped down Acoustic guitar and dark lonesome tone of the Mandocello on “Unrequited Love”; the songs manage to catch the listener’s ear. Melodic hooks abound and a clear and concise message is delivered with well crafted, thought provoking lyrics. The songs of “Inverted Valentine” invite the listener to come in, experience the music and it’s message, take something if you want, because brokenness needs to be shared. Songs the singer/songwriter Ward Hayden etched on paper when his heart found the way to his hand in tribute to urgency, impossibility and the ache behind a smile and humming guitar.
