Available on:
 You can get Music for a Free World like digitally or physically at bandcamp or stream it on your favorite stream  or get a physical like a CD at www.sewelsonics.com or the Free Smooth Jazz store or truck on down to the Downtown Music Gallery and tell Bruce that Sewelson sent you

The opening song is the title track has a strong, spirited, almost prayer-light theme that rings true for the troubling times that surround us. Many of us can relate to the sentiment of the title, “Music for a Free World”, since we do long to be free of the fascism that is rising around the planet. Mr. Sewelson and Mr. Swell sound like righteous sparring partners, combining forces, blending their solemn, slow burning voices...The quartet together make a strong impression, a solid force, they capture some age old vibes, united in the right ways. A toast to these fabulous veterans! Bruce Lee Gallanter, Downtown Music Gallery
