    “There is a deep embedded ache in Bousquet’s voice. You can feel it down in the trenches of his soul and through the crack in his voice.” – Redline Roots

    “On Into The Light Within Bousquet really separates himself as a songwriter from a very crowded field of excellent songwriters taking up camp in his home state. While he’s not afraid to crank up the electric guitar to prove a song’s point, it’s his more introspective moments, such as on “Gloria” that he really knocks it out of the park.” – Chip McCabe, Lonesome Noise

lyrics

THIS IS WHERE ARE WE GOING
I'm just a drop in the ocean/She's the ocean in a drop/I struggle to get things in motion/She just doesn't stop/I say, "Nothing is happening"/She says, "I guess that depends/Is this where are we going?/Or is this where have we been?"/I cup a flickering candle/She finds a place in the sun/I struggle between not and knowing/She says, "This is the one!"/I say, "Something is happening"/She says “Again and again/This is where are we going/Not where have we been"/And when I wake each morning to see those flickering lights/Flashing on the water like new worlds in our sights/I say, "Something is happening"/She says, "Every ‘where’ is a ‘when’/This is where are we going/Not where have we been"/I'm just a drop in the ocean/I'm just a drop
