“These songs are honest and from my heart,” Farner said. “

The collaboration with Jim (Peterik) and Mark (Slaughter) came from a

place of trust and that makes the whole experience so much more

rewarding as songwriters. The audience can fe

reflect those very human moments that you can’t find creating a song

from a computer.”

“‘Closer to My Home’ comes from the idea that love is at the heart of

all that I do, and music is my home
