Ben Travis is a solo artist who writes all his own songs, as well as plays the piano, sings, produces, and engineers on his newest recordings. "My goal, " he says, "is to write music that will inspire people to think and ask meaningful questions about the world around them." His style is gentle, yet thoughtful, and his musicianship is high quality. Ben is currently working on an album called "All the Way Home" which he wrote while going through the process of watching his father die of cancer. He is also working on an album of trance music called "Miles Per Second" and a new instrumental album called "Leaving the Chrysalis." Ben has just finished an instrumental album which contains quiet, meditative piano music. These songs were played in moments of inspiration, and can be used for massage therapy, meditation, or just quiet background music. This album is set up to fit a 60-minute massage session perfectly. It is called "Mentored By Life, " and will be available in CD format soon.

Story behind the song
Written as my dad was dying from cancer. Just a soft piano and vocal song from me to him.
Lyrics
Today I think about how strange it is to hold you in my arms one moment then give you away to a darkness that I cannot see through Perhaps tomorrow I will understand it better than I do Today the weather seems so cold and even though the Sun is shining there’s a blanket on my soul and I try to tell myself it’s for the best but you should know that you will always be with me and I confess I must have taken you for granted oh, so many times I must have told you that I loved you without looking in your eyes, and now Today everything’s so clear and as I hear you take your final breath I can’t find the tears but I think of all the moments we have shared and I know all of my tomorrows will be better ‘cause you cared for me Today
