Grief & Loss

Whether grieving the loss of a beloved family member, friend or pet, dealing with a health challenge or transitioning from this life, a job or family crisis, or simply day-to-day life, music is one of the most powerful gifts we have for getting in touch with our emotions and finding comfort, healing and inspiration.

“When I discover an album I love, my tendency is to play it all the time — at home, in the car, in my office. Ignoring the danger of overdoing it, I play the music over and over again until eventually — a different album replaces my current favorite. This hasn’t happened with Quiet Days. I have been listening to it almost exclusively now for such a long time. What can I say? ‘Exquisite’ is the word that describes it best perhaps. Exquisite, dreamy, enchanting. No matter what kind of day I am having, I find myself relaxing to this amazing music playing in the background — gentle, yet so powerfully uplifting. Before I know it, I am smiling, I am filled with hope and I know everything is going to be all right. Life is good. People are good. The future —positive and full of promise.”  —Auriela McCarthy, author of The Power of the Possible

Of the thousands of letters, calls and emails received from listeners over the years, perhaps the most touching have been those from people who have experienced loss of a loved family member or friend, loss of a beloved pet, a health challenge or the process of leaving their physical bodies, and how they found tremendous comfort through listening to our music. We thank you for letting us know and hold you in our hearts. Hearing from you means more to us and our artists than we can say.
