Hi, this is Cliff Ontego – your friend, vocalist, and host, navigating you, our patrons and avid fans, through our latest musical offering. Whether this may be your one hundredth listen or your first, to the spectrum of No Trend – whatever the case may be, I graciously welcome you with open arms. This album is a new sound, as it is a contained sound, once contained in the collective heads of No Trend, but now contained in this album. It falls into a category of music rarely heard. It’s called honest. In No Trend we find love, work, and knowledge, and they are all tied up together, and called music. While listening to this album, your favorite chair gets softer, the hearth is warmer, and life and memories become much sweeter
