Dreamland Songs


















Several years ago I made an indie film called Dreamland.
It told the story of an amusement park in my hometown of
Greenville, South Carolina that operated from the 1920s
to the 1940s. This park was a refuge from the ravages
of both the Great Depression and World War Two. The
centerpiece of the story revolved around the Floyd Family
which owned and operated the park. I also composed and
recorded a song cycle about the park. Here are several
songs from the Dreamland Song Cycle:

Blues Won't Let Me Be
I Hate To Get Up At Midnight
We Went To Dreamland
