“I’m truly excited to share my very first solo project, Reverie,” shares Paul Wright. “As you listen to these pieces, I hope you’ll let yourself be transported to a place where time stands still, where every note and every chord reflects a deeply personal story, and where each harmonic progression carries the weight of unspoken emotions.”
Special guest appearances include Kirk Whalum, Mark Kibble of Take 6, Dave Cleveland, and others. Reverie also includes “Only You,” a special song composed and performed with Wright’s daughter, Nicole Wright, and featuring Mark Kibble of Take 6. Reverie was mixed in both stereo and Dolby Atmos giving the listener an immersive experience.
The companion visual album and movie were planned since the inception of Reverie to showcase the deep, spiritual origin of the songs. As a composer for film and TV, Wright has always imagined music visually as well as sonically and worked to convey his vision in both album and film. Although the visual album tells a complete story with scenes pulled from the daily human experience, each song is a life vignette that can stand on its own.
“The film is loosely autobiographical,” says Wright. “The visual album will be offered individually as a 7-part series that covers parts of everyday life people will be able to relate to.”
With over thirty years of experience in the music industry, Paul Wright III is an Emmy Award® winning composer, producer, and artist, a seven-time GRAMMY® nominee, five-time Emmy nominee, as well as a GMA Dove Award and Stellar Award winner and nominee. Reverie is his first solo project.
