Every year after the holidays, my siblings and I put on a concert in our home which we have appropriately named "The Winter Concert." This performance of "Forgive Me" was from our 5th annual Winter Concert, which took place on January 8th, 2012. This song means a lot to me... I felt so privileged to have such a wonderful and supportive audience of family and friends to share in the performance that night, and such an amazing group of people sharing the stage with me.

Joining me on stage are my good friends (from left to right):
JACK KOVACS - guitar
BRIAN "THEORY" HARGROVE - piano
NICK CAMPBELL - bass
BEN ROSE - drums/percussion

Many thanks to my sibs Riana and Dalten (who got a break from singing to pick up the cameras to shoot the video during this song) for helping to make such a special concert happen. As always, Dalten directed & edited the video, and I recorded & mixed the audio.

Again, if you want to get the album version on iTunes, here's the link:

[Zahrin16]

Wow, you're on Glee? Bro, they need to give you a bigger role. You've got one hell of a voice. Keep up the good work, mate.

@drocknelly hahah, yeah, maybe that's why... and i'm a big fan of semi-hollows, I have oone myself

[drocknelly]

@Manu220798 i AM the guitar player on GLEE!! haha! Maybe that's why you saw the resemblance... :) And the hollow body electric that I play on the show is a VOX, not Ibanez. But good eyes! (and thanks for watching)

[imStillen92]

such a nice hook and a really good arrangement I think.. :) and the best mix between pop and jazz elements - in other words: no heavy/ stodgy jazz and no superficial pop.... :) keep going on with your own music!! greetz from germany :)

by the way: your winter album gets better every time I hear it! and I always discover new little details....- so that's a sign that it won't get boring quickly!! :) thank you

[pasha355]

Hey Derek! You've got a new fan in Russia! Amazing job!

[SuperPattykakes]

Know what is even nicer than your voice, which gets to me every time? The two guitars together are really heartbreaking and set up the sadness-gorgeous!
