In “Wander”, Dorothy explores the simplicity of an earlier time. Two Little Gifts tells of her families’ unique Christmas story. Filled with imagery and an appreciation for the simple things in life, she sings of her parents’ 1943 Christmas: “Two little gifts under the tree, but they were living in the lap of luxury, to spend Christmas with the one they love.” Decades passed, the family grew, but “some things never change.” Prayer with Every Stitch and Grandma’s Biscuits speak of her love for everything homemade. Simplify is her earnest plea to regain this style of living, at this stage of
her life, in the year 2011.
Expect the unexpected from Dorothy. The Answer showcases her jazz chops as she sings of a great love affair that was unlikely at best, but which lasted 53 years. In the tune In His Eyes, you’ll hear the desperate plea of one family member coping with the addiction of a loved one. Scooter Blues takes you on an ironic and humorous journey, as she tries to “reorganize and reprioritize” now that she’s “traded her 4-door for her scooter.”
Angel speaks of the ultimate gift of friendship. The use of guitar fingerpicking and dulcimer give it that heartwarming, reflective tone. And finally, the title track Wander speaks of the art of letting go.
Under the exemplary production of veteran Baton Rouge musician/videographer Daniel Lee, “Wander” is a beautiful body of work that truly speaks of that universal journey of life…designed for men and women, young and old alike.
