"Destiny of a Pilgrim", Mowrey"s debut CD, is a foray onto the edge of his unbridled creativity and insight. Inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien"s "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, "Destiny of a Pilgrim" combines a diverse troupe of musicians and uncommon instruments to achieve a gentle flow from one song to the next, coaxing the listener to take part of a wide range of emotions, from the sweet nostalgia of "At Rest" to the triumphant "Great Feast". Tom Mowrey"s songs take his listeners on a visionary"s journey. Fingerstyle guitar lends itself to creating a complex blend of sounds with a decidedly folkloric feel. A mix of flight and fantasy, Mowrey"s instrumental pieces form a story that you cannot help but follow.
