Arc of Day

The serenely emotional elegance that Danny Paul Grody puts into his acoustic guitar compositions is the type of thing that seems like it should be more well known than it is, but that’s exactly why his 2023 release Arc of Day hits so hard throughout, with a sense of resonance and precise clarity in equal measure. With accompaniment at points from colleagues like Rich Douthit and Chuck Johnson, on songs like “Light Blooms” and “Cathedral Tree,” Grody extends both his lengthy discography and the tradition he plays in with creative, involving spirit.
