Alan Peterson
Music of the Heart ©
Alan's
second solo album has 14 tracks of his original songs that are truly
"from the heart". From the opening title cut "Music Of the Heart", and songs like "Follow Your Dreams", to the final "Fly (911)",
Alan lets the listener know that we are living in a world filled with
love and hope. There are also traditional love songs here, his "Circle Of Love (wedding song)" and the lovely, "Everything I had in Mind" are both wonderful tributes to the bond between committed individuals (used in many wedding celebrations).
The CD includes some country fun with "Wishin' and A Hopin'"
and "When The Ocean Swallows Up The Moon", a tribute to the late
great George Harrison in "Eastern Wind" and songs with Alan's band, Harmonic Convergence,
including, "A Love So Right", "Cowboy In the City" and a live
version of "Do You Feel the Love" all featuring
their unique three part harmony. All in all, "Music Of The Heart" is a
great mix of styles and sounds and a wonderful sampling of the music
that comes from the heart of Alan Peterson.

Harmonic Convergence Band
"LIVE"
Engaging,
uplifting, humorous, and thought-provoking, the music of Harmonic
Convergence reflects the accumulated talent, wit, and wisdom of three
seasoned northwest musicians. Acoustic guitar, mandolin, and a
sensitive Stratocaster support intelligent vocals with compelling three
part harmonies. Rhapsodizes one fan, " Ah, the harmonies! The
harmonies!" Songwriters and performers Alan Peterson and Lon Jones
evoke the human condition in it's many phrases: emotional, a little
political, a little spiritual and sometimes downright quirky. Vocalist
Sharon McCann enthralls listeners with her rich contralto voice,
described by one listener as "... just like fudge!"
Includes original songs:
- At Any Given Moment- A. Peterson
- Little Boat- L. Jones
- A Deal With the Devil- A. Peterson
- What Happened To Those Girls- L. Jones
- Spender In The Grass- A. Peterson
- Tender Cowboy- S. McCann
- Goodbye To Innocence- A. Peterson

"Harmonic
Convergence, Alan Peterson, Lon Jones, and Sharon McCann, have quietly
been establishing a sterling reputation in the Northwest for their
performances of their original music…featuring pristine three part
vocals." Tom May, Producer, "River City Folk" nationally syndicated radio broadcast WFMT Fine Arts Radio Network
- Recorded live at Artichoke Music's Backgate Stage in Portland, Oregon.

Unreel World Recording, Lake Oswego, OR

“Alan Peterson was
recently a guest on my program “The Donna Seebo Show” and it was a delight
to share his music with my audience. His lyrics and music were truly heart
lifting and a joy to listen to. I would invite anyone who loves good music
to listen to Alan’s ‘Circle of Love’.

the world on
www.BBSRadio.com,
"Your
songs are gifts from God; I'm certain your music has touched and helped
heal many, many troubled souls and uplifted countless others. It
certainly has helped me, and that is an understatement! I had tears in
my eyes and such love in my heart while listening to "Do You Feel the
Love?" What a beautiful voice you have, what a gifted musician and
musical arranger...Thank you with all my heart. You lift me up..." Love, Louise
"I have
been listening to your CD, Circle of Love. It is so beautiful! I absolutely
love the song Everything I had in Mind. How cool! Lucky Judy. Of course
Circle of Love is wonderful. You have a great voice to listen to over and
over!" Rose W
"Having been to Unity Village many times and
having had relatives who used to live nearby and having heard you perform at
Unity of Beaverton, I can see you performing at Unity Village." Gene Y

his music and example." Beverly McPherron Unity minister
"Alan
Peterson has gifted us here at Unity of Corvallis on several occasions.
He is a joy to work with and a genuine talent that connects at a heart
level with our congregation. His songs and music are original,
inspiring and meaningful as well as great to listen to as an uplifting
antidote to a dreary week." Rev. John Butler Unity of Corvallis
"Alan’s
music comes straight from his heart, connects to the listener’s heart,
and creates a space of peace and healing. His songs are the kind
you can listen to over and over again and never tire of the melodies or
lyrics. They touch one at deep levels. Other songs are just
plain fun! They are great to listen to in the car, on the
treadmill, or at work." Reverend Robin Haruna Unity of Bandon
"Alan provides heartfelt music that gently supports our services. His original music touches the soul. Rev. Sally Rutis Senior Associate Minister, Living Enrichment Center

Enrichment Center
"The Circle of Love ceremony including original music by Alan Peterson was the most beautiful we ever attended." Sharon M.
"By
the end of the ceremony, our guests were awed by the beauty of the
music that Alan has actually written himself. This made our wedding
totally unique from all other's weddings. When Alan sang "Circle of
Love" I think the entire room glowed in joy, and tears were flowing
throughout the room. I just love seeing grown men cry!" Ann S.
"Alan
composes his music by ear, heart, and instinct rather than by rule -
even though he knows the rules well. Additionally he is one of the most
pleasant, supportive, and accountable musicians I have ever worked
with. I say this as a minister who deals with hundreds of musicians a
year." ~ Unity Rev Teri Hawkins, bestselling author

music calls me to a higher place. It touches places within me and
reveals a Truth that I had forgotten existed. Alan's music is filled
with love and joy and hope." Craig H.

communicate, collaborate and co-create. A star in his own right, Alan
is always willing to share the stage and the spotlight. Performers and
audience members are all blessed by his leadership." Kathleen Verigin minister
"Alan's
lovely voice, emotional delivery and the beauty of the music he writes
is indicative of the spirit and gentleness of a man who is not afraid
to let the world know that he is a self realized person and willingly
exposes his soft side to the world, for the benefit of all concerned.
You cannot come away from one of his concerts or just listening to a
CD, unchanged. As an opera singer for many years, I am accustomed to
listening for quality, with Alan's work, you listen for pleasure."
Reverend Gail Key-Benson
"What I enjoy about Alan's music is the
positive message about the presence of love and spirit in our everyday
world. It touches on the challenges of being "at the crossroads of
life" and the freedom of feeling "at times I am so beautiful". The
depth of Alan's lyrics allow for listening to the CD time and time
again. And often the "aha" comes from listening to a song that I have
heard before, but not thought about in a particular way until that very
moment. I highly recommend his music AND his message." Brenda E
"Alan
Peterson has a gift. It's a very good gift indeed. His music is from

Alan and his music, it is indeed "a wonderful life"." Liz D.
"Alan
Peterson's original compositions are full of positivity, sincerity and
intelligence with sounds and grooves that capture an American
sensibility. He is not afraid to "speak his truth" even if it means
challenging traditional thought or stepping into the realm of
spirituality. He is able to touch a place deep inside of you in a way
that makes you want to hear his songs again and again." Gil Reynolds
Singer/Songwriter
"Not only is Alan's music inspiring, his dedication to his music and his message shines through every performance." John W

being a "look on the bright side'' kinda guy I was bogged down with the
daily grind , rat race and minor setbacks which effect us all .A friend
had sent me Alan's CD and while I listened to other music in my
collection the word Love kept staring me in the face. As World in
Love played , I realized there was a bright side to this day and to our
lives and it all went away... thanks Alan.... nice music.. nice words
.. love" Chris P.

comes through and touches my heart and soul...and the sweet smoothness
of his voice adds depth to all of his songs." Melissa S. groupie..

have had the pleasure of experiencing Alan's talent and I have listened
to his CD and I have to be honest and go on record and say that this
man shares with the world, a divine channel to a higher power. Not only

man who contains it...." Cate L.
