Before and After by Carrie Newcomer
Quaker singer-songwriter Carrie Newcomer’s latest album. The The title track, “Before and After,” is about “experiences by which we mark our lives. Some of these experiences are large events—the birth of a child, the loss of a parent, a wedding or divorce. Some of these experiences are small moments that we did
