Music
“Imagine Fernando Ortega meets Norah Jones to sing hymns of motherhood—if by hymns you mean folksy, family-centered poetry set to an Americana jazz ensemble. The title track, with gently swinging jazz guitar mingled with flute and tangy harmonies, conveys the feeling of coming in from the cold—or coming home. Cello and piano create richness and warmth on “Let You Go,” a duet that features Snyder’s daughter and expresses the bittersweet feelings of watching children grow up and walk out the door: We want them to grow and go, yet our hearts break at their going.”
-Jeff Koch, World Magazine
“I’ve followed this artist for years, and her music and her voice truly just get better with time. There are so many beautiful feelings and experiences layered into her music. The music is so pretty, but the sentiments that are woven in make it a gorgeous fabric. Heidi’s most recent Album, Come On Home, is a treat – at once deep, playful, sweet – and always a huge pleasure to listen to. ”
LYRICS FROM HEIDI’S LATEST ALBUM, Come On Home
Pure Delight:
Hey little boy your eyes are far, you want to know where the wild things are.
You want to know when dreams come true, when you believe they'll come to you.
Hey little girl this day's for you, I want to show you all things new.
The stars in the sky and the oceans blue, deep in your eyes you show me too.
In the morning you come in, how we fall in love again.
Sweet songs dance like birds in flight, your voice brings us pure delight.
Hey little man you're growing up, and how we need each other's love.
You show me things about my heart, like reaching for yous is the place to start.
In the morning you come in.....
Rob Pitera - Guitar, Abigail Alwin - Cello, Josef Deas - Bass, Donny Brown - Drums, Heidi Snyder - vocals, Rebekah Snyder - backup vocals
Come With Me:
Come with me. Let me lull you off to sleep. Come into the land of dreams and memories.
Hands will play all the simple words we cannot say. Here within the music of the rain we'll dance again.
And time will melt away here turning bitter into sweet. Wings forgotten for some time, they come to wrap and enfold me. Close your eyes.
All my life, in all my memories the time at grandmother's house has seemed so sweet.. So come with me into my keyhole dream.
The world will fade away or so it seems. So come and dream.
I remember how her voice wrapped aaound me turning chaos into peace. Her arms that were waiting for so long came to soothe and protect me.
Close your eyes.
Brian Diblassio - Piano, Heidi Snyder - vocals, Rebekah Snyder - backup vocals
