DiGregorio House of Gregory Chapter 2

Spread the love

As such, I would like to invite you on a tour of the haunted and the hunted as together we revisit the first two albums on this journey through the supernatural.

The second release from DiGregorio is less dense sonically than House of Gregory Chapter One, but still retains the composition style of song writer Suzanne DeCree. Suzanne’s love of classical forms comes through in this release. The arrangements are simultaneously light and flowing, while harmonically complex. Take a journey into your imagination and the unknown as Suzanne takes you through her continuing adventures with the supernatural.

While each song was written separately, the recording is best enjoyed by listening to the 14 minute suite version where the songs float effortlessly together. Don’t let the catchy melodies fool you, the bassist for this recording said that these songs were more complicated than they appeared. Maybe? But isn’t that what music is supposed to do? Challenge us and take us on journeys?

DiGregorio was born in 2015 when guitarist and songwriter, Suzanne DeCree, decided she was done holding back on her music. For the next year, she focused on writing a song a week and by 2016, she had over 60 songs to choose from. Crafting a storyline befitting the dense, melodramatic and atmospheric music she wrote led to the House of Gregory – a 19-song debut album. Culling some of the best session players from Pittsburgh, she worked continually for the next 7 years to bring this haunted house to life.
