[su_quote]This is my debut album, so hard to put into words how eager I am to get it out in the world,” Croce tells P&P. “I’ve written every song on the album. I was so excited to have Vince Gill play an incredible acoustic guitar solo on ‘Break in the Rain,’ and I’ve been a huge fan of Greg Leisz since I first heard him on a Ray LaMontagne (record).
