'Belong' is released today


'Belong' is released today and it has been a busy and a wonderful release day. Here is a clip from last week's show at The Living Room. James Maddock joined me, as he does on the album, to sing this song 'Everything We Had Was Good'. We're accompanied by Brendan O'Shea on acoustic, Erik Della Penna on electric, Jason Sypher on Bass, Justin Carroll on keys and Mason Ingram on drums.

The Cover

Here is the cover artwork for ‘Belong’. Chris Carlone took the photograph at the end of July when we were at Times Square to shoot a Pledge Music video, and the design, by Gregory Jacobson, was inspired by old scans of photos from the American Library of Congress.

Last Night at The Living Room

Last night at The Living Room on Manhattan's Lower East Side, in the midst of a snowstorm, we had a warm night and a great time playing the songs of 'Belong' for a lovely audience who braved the elements to be there. It was taped for broadcast on Sirius XM's 'The Loft' during the month of December. Brendan O'Shea, Erik Della Penna, Justin Carroll, Jason Sypher and Mason Ingram were the band and they were in fantastic form. Special guests James Maddock and Jimi Zhivago brought their talents to the songs 'Everything We Had Was Good' and 'Belong'. Katie Holten took this lovely photo.
