2x Emmy® Award winning composer Michael Whalen created a “dream team” of five of the most celebrated New Age musicians of all-time.
Watercolor Sky was inspired by Michael’s move to the shores of Jamaica Bay (New York City) and observing a year of the natural beauty living next to a Federal Wildlife Preserve and his love of the music of Windham Hill Records of the 1980’s.
