Anthology Volume One is much more than a collection of tracks—it’s a sonic journey across diverse landscapes, from the golden age of Hollywood and 1970s cop shows to the intimacy of theatre and the unknown realms of futuristic space travel. Featuring collaborations with guitarist Lee Wrathe and producer Dan Dodson, as well as a special appearance by Jack Hose, each track showcases a unique musical scene, brought to life through Hose’s imaginative compositions and eclectic instrumentation.
Reflecting on the album’s inspiration, Paul Hose describes Anthology Volume One as a “homecoming,” a project that reconnected him to his roots in music and allowed him to rediscover the joy of creating.
This album is deeply personal. It was born out of a need to reconnect with the music that has been a constant companion since my childhood. Over the years, my focus shifted towards education and helping others achieve their musical dreams, but in doing so, my own creative voice grew quiet. This album marks the beginning of a new chapter in my life, and I couldn’t be prouder of the result.
