While You Decide
To coin a familiar term, the "gateway" to the September 2018 Concert Party appears to have been a portal through which my recent songwriting productivity resurged. I began to compose and finish song ideas that had been floating around, and in some cases nagging me,...
The Struggle
Think about all of the challenges that you have faced, watched family and friends go though, and humanity endure. We look back to youth and for a fleeting instance it seems like it was lighter and more in our own control. Age carries with it the wisdom, if we choose...
Make Up Time
Ripped from the front page of my love life... quite some time ago, thankfully. True confessions ladies, right here, right now; we've all known this one! A blessing and a curse, which I have come to consider a "Good Luck Charm" in preparation for the true one who was...
Full Moon Video 2020
A song written in 1987, and given a visual by co-writer Alan Kerbey. Ever since writing this tune, and every month the full moon appears, I sing the line and consider that another 390 months with their moons have gone by... my how the time flies! Working with short...

Second Chance
Singers all have favorite tunes that we want to belt out, whether we should or not, if nothing else but to have the enjoyment of hearing ourselves sing our own interpretations. In my case, it is almost always a song that was originally sung by a male voice that I...
Weddings
It has been my distinct honor and blessing to have been asked to sing for many of my family's and friend's weddings. There isn't a more beautiful privilege than to be waiting in the wings, up in the balcony or right up front singing a sacred piece or love song for a...
A Song for You
We are on sacred ground here... CHURCH. Beside holding Leon Russell in the highest regards as a pianist/singer/songwriter/producer/music director, this song is for me one of the finest sentiments ever put to music. And what music it is, a Beethoven-esque sonata-love...
A Love Letter to My Hometown
Rituals. It is only now that I understand that home is where, no matter the location, you bring yourself and your rituals to live the life you have created. I've spent half of my life on the East Coast, after growing up in the vast space of a small town that was in...
