![Alden Powers is a guitarist, songwriter and producer delivering positive music to the people of Arizona. Listening to Alden's CD "1,000 is never enough" takes you on a journey through a persons life, the highs and lows, and the good and bad. "This album was therapy for me. I had to spend some time by myself and work out some issues. That's basically what the recording is about. Its very personal." With an album as eclectic 1,000 is Never Enough, it may be difficult to categorize Alden as an artist, but that doesnt seem to bother him. "One of the things I dont like about music today is this element of sameness. If you turn on a radio station, all the songs sound the same. The same artist may as well have written them. I'm trying to get away from that with my music. I want to keep the listener guessing. Each song is a surprise. You never know whats going to happen next. With every song I have a different story to tell, so I used different sounds and styles to tell those stories. If you like adventure, then listen to my CD."](http://content.bandzoogle.com/users/perfecttimingentertainment/images/photos/gallery/1906535-thumb.jpg?0 "Alden Powers is a guitarist, songwriter and producer delivering positive music to the people of Arizona.
