Guitarist Sam Kirmayer's new recording, In This Moment, is a musical experience that depicts emotional landscapes experienced during the pandemic; melancholy, uncertainty, determination, hope and solidarity. Kirmayer presents his new original compositions arranged for a group of All-star musicians from the Montreal scene.
