data-fusion-font=\"true\"> is a powerful collection of songs that explores what it means to call a place \u201cHome\u201d \u2014 a theme that resonates deeply as Rich reflects on the people, places, and journeys that form our unique personal identities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 28px;\" data-fusion-font=\"true\">These songs came about by drawing on my experiences as a cancer surgeon, father, friend, lover, and fellow traveler. The songs paint a picture of the many ways we think about home, and how that image can change throughout the course of a lifetime. From the gritty title track, Mill Pond, to the hauntingly evocative Snowflake Kisses, time and place take a front seat, helping to drive the emotional connections we experience when thinking of \u201cHome\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px; line-height: 28px;\" data-fusion-font=\"true\">Mill Pond was born when I was fortunate enough to be connected to acclaimed producer Jon Shain.

Further good fortune led to my meeting Jon\u2019s long-time friend and musical collaborator FJ Ventre. Jon and FJ guided Mill Pond to completion as Producer and Recording and Mixing Engineer, respectively, as well as lending their musical talents to these songs as collaborators. An unexpected connection developed between me and Jon, when we realized we had both grown up in adjoining towns on opposite sides of the Merrimack River in Massachusetts. This led to a unique understanding by <\/span>Jon of the sense of place and the emotions these songs evoke.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px;\" data-fusion-font=\"true\">Having arrived in Durham, North Carolina over 30 years ago, I was fortunate to have had a long career as a physician and surgeon at Duke University. Although I had long been writing songs, it was during the COVID pandemic that I focused my energies as a singer-songwriter, leading to <\/span><strong><em><span style=\"font-size: 13px;\" data-fusion-font=\"true\">Mill Pond<\/span><\/em><\/strong><span style=\"font-size: 13px;\" data-fusion-font=\"true\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":"","_tec_slr_enabled":"","_tec_slr_layout":""},"class_list":["post-1436","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"ticketed":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/richscher.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1436","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/richscher.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/richscher.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/richscher.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/richscher.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1436"}],"version-history":[{"count":148,"href":"https:\/\/richscher.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1436\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2260,"href":"https:\/\/richscher.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1436\/revisions\/2260"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/richscher.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1436"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
