We stayed at the lovely Edwards Waterhouse Inn when we visited Fredonia in October for the Chambers Singers reunion. The morning we left, I asked the owners if we could shoot a little video of me performing my original song “I’ll See You In My Dreams” at their old Vose and Sons baby grand. It just seemed like the right piano and parlor for this tune.

I’m thrilled to announce that today is the official release date for my new album I’LL WALTZ BEFORE I GO.  The album was co-produced by Thomas Millioto and myself and was recorded and mixed by Tom.  It features guest appearances by Thomas Millioto, Lori Brigantino, Susan Haefner and Morgan “Gus” Buttolph.  CD copies of the album are available for sale in my store.  Digital downloads are available for purchase from iTunes, Amazon and other digital music retailers.

“I’ll Waltz Before I Go,” the title track from my soon-to-be-released album is part of the new Women of Substance Podcast on iTunes.  You can listen to and download the podcast here!

My song “I Gotta Find Me Somethin’” from my album Wonder Wheel, with Lori Brigantino and Susan Haefner on additional vocals (starting at :45 in the clip below), was used in the opening sequence of the film “For The Love Of George” – a quirky romantic comedy about a jilted wife who leaves her cheating husband in England and sets off to LA hoping to meet who she believes is the perfect man – George Clooney (film was made prior to Clooney’s marriage).
