Chuck Brown began writing songs at the age of 13. His first composition, Judgment Day, is included on this album. He has gone on to write over 200 songs, both instrumental and songs with lyrics, and has released several albums in the solo piano, children's music and Christian pop music genres."Unadorned" was his first commercial release, recorded in 1997. The location of the recording was Tejas Studios (Franklin, TN), located in a barn on the estate of Amy Grant and Gary Chapman. The album was recorded in a single 14-hour day.While he has gone on to record several albums since, a number of people still point to this simple, unclutter solo piano collection as their favorite.
