Melancholia

Melancholia, Doug Hammer’s 15th release, is an intimate piano album.

Sad and haunting, it bears witness to events in the recent past, including some personal ones.

Our lives are a series of moments. Moments gained and moments lost. We hold on as tight as we can, trying to re-create them. But they slip through our fingers, disappearing into the night. What we are left with are our memories. Melancholia is a journey of time. Bittersweet, but well-lived.
