Recorded and Mixed by Scott Steinman, Studiomedia Recording Company at Electrical Audio, Chicago, IL, August 20, 2015

This project is partially supported by an Individual Artist Program Grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events, as well as a grant from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency through federal funds provided by the National Endowment for the Arts.

I will be returning to Vicky’s of Santa Fe in Indian Wells, CA on Monday, January 18, 2016 from 7-9 pm for a performance of my original songs and a few selections from my first three albums written by some of my favorite composers. I have some new unrecorded material I have composed recently which I will perform as well, so if you will be in the California area, I hope you will join me and a killer band for an outstanding night of music.
