Originally released in 2000, Safe Away has seen various forms including a re-release in 2006. This debut album from Denison Witmer has been on my playlist since I first heard it in 2002 from my friends Josh. Incidentally, he actually first discovered Denison at a Cornerstone Music Festival in southern Illinois. Just one of the many ways we discover new music.
Safe Away is a very simple album. And by simple I do not mean that the quality is simple, but that most songs are guitar and voice alone. If you are into the singer/songwriter scene, Denison is a solid performer worth listening to. His lyrics often times tell a story that brings your mind to another place. Below is a live performance of the second track, ‘Breathe In This Life.’ Enjoy.

Good musix. I’ll have to research more and maybe do a post as well
