In 2007, Don de Leaumont will release his 4th CD titled “…said the firefly to the hurricane” celebrating his 10th Anniversary as a folksinger/ songwriter. Drawing its title from a line in a song by Kevn Kinney, one of Don’s biggest and earliest influences, “…said the firefly to the hurricane” is another collection of songs that shows tremendous growth and promise. On this release, while maintaining the fun-loving storytelling side that he has become known for, Don reaches over into the darker areas of his life and really gets personal. He talks about pondering his own “growing old” in the song “I Drive” and even addresses the emotional impact Hurricane Katrina had on him and his family in “It Weighs A Ton”. On the lighter side, Don lives the “rock and roll dream” of going to California to be a star in the song “California Bound”. “…said the firefly to the hurricane” is an album for the people. It’s not brain surgery. It’s not progressive. It’s accessible and it’s easy to find your self in these songs. Just allow yourself the opportunity to let go and join the story.
