My original songs and arrangements blending country with soul. Special recognition for two virtuoso musicians: Mike Auldridge and Danny Gatton.
I wrote the title song that was used as a 9/11 tribute. It includes some of the D.C. area's finest singers and musicians. Proceeds went to help the families of 9/11. It's included in The September 11 Digital Archive (http://911digitalarchive.org/collection-tree).
