Collinwood Yards

Collinwood Yards is a sweeping, orchestral-progressive rock masterpiece that traces a lifetime of resilience, artistry, and self-discovery. Born in the industrious, hard-scrabble shadow of a legendary Cleveland railyard, composer and guitarist Carl Baldassarre channels nearly fifty years of musical evolution into a single, breathtaking 14-track narrative.

Spanning decades of creative perseverance from his early days leading local trailblazers Abraxas and Syzygy to recording at the historic Abbey Road Studios in London—this album represents a triumphant journey of survival against the odds. Featuring breathtaking collaborations with world-class musicians, Collinwood Yards is more than an album; it is a cinematic odyssey of a train that left the station decades ago, rolling ever forward and never looking back.
