Who wants a Great Truth CD?? Yeah, #streaming is great, but there’s nothing like a hard copy – and the best part is that it comes with a beautiful lyric book, painstakingly prepared by the master lyricist herself (thx Nicole we luv u)!

if you're not a #CD person, but still crave something physical... stay tuned. I am designing stand-alone lyric books to be released around the same time. 😊 I think they'll be really cool and unique! xo -Nicole 2/2 #conceptalbum #lyriclovers #progressiverock #synthrock
