  • Bio

    <img src="http://www.jasonyudoff.com/img/101217_jytnh.jpg"> <br /> <br /> Starting 2008 with plenty of momentum, Jason Yudoff has just released his second studio album, a 12-track disc entitled "Tragic Hero". Produced by the enigmatic Ron Thaler (Kirsten DeHaan, Kacie Sheik, The Led Zep Project) and mastered by the legendary, Grammy-winning Scott Hull (Steely Dan, John Mayer, David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen, Herbie Hancock and a veritable who's who of music legends), this sophomore effort delivers wicked grooves, soulful vibes, vintage sounds, tasty melodies, and introspective lyrics about life, love, and loss... .."Tragic Hero" has already begun to attract attention. Mere weeks after it's release, it has already been placed on the Official 2008 Grammy Ballot in 4 categories - including Album of the Year, Record of the Year ('Personal Addict') and Best New Artist. Jason was chosen by the Songwriters Hall Of Fame for their 61st New Writers Showcase, performing 'You Should Be My Girl' and '5 More Minutes'. He has appeared twice on "The Joey Reynolds Show", been featured on Woozyfly.com, Indie-Music.com and FashionWeekDaily, and is now actively supporting Tragic Hero on both coasts - rocking shows in sublime Los Angeles venues like The House of Blues, The Mint and The Derby to compliment his NYC shows at Pianos, Crash Mansion and The Bitter End... ..About "Tragic Hero", legendary rock drummer Carmine Appice (Vanilla Fudge, Rod Stewart, Jeff Beck) says: "Great voice, killer keys, interesting grooves… Soulful songs, old school - as they should be!". Peter Bliss from SHOF raves: "In the tradition of our time honored keyboard player/singers - Jason lends his humor, his voice, groove and passion to a great set of original songs. Smart and funky, catchy and compelling - a great listen!" And WOR radio and television personality Joey Reynolds states simply: "Just terrific!".. .."Tragic Hero" is now available on iTunes, Cdbaby, Napster, PayPlay, Buymusic, and many other online outlets.

    “Would that there were an award for people who come to

    understand the concept of ENOUGH.

    GOOD enough.

    SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE enough.

    When you have SELF-RESPECT, you have ENOUGH.”

    Ask Yourself - Have You Been KIND TODAY ?
     

    I AM RECORDING A NEW ALBUM THIS MONTH - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT KINDNESS ...

    One Million Acts Of Kindness is a goal. A goal for each person to individually perform One Million Acts Of Kindness in their lifetime. Can you imagine a greater goal for one's life?

    Most of us think that changing the world is impossible. The world is too big…too many people in it…too many problems to solve. Do you often feel this way? While it’s understandable, be assured that it is not true!

    NO ACT OF KINDNESS ~ HOWEVER SMALL IS EVER
    WASTED!  HOW MANY LIVES CAN WE CHANGE IF WE
    PRACTICE KINDNESS EVERY DAY?

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    "The WINNERS IN LIFE  think constantly in terms of

             I CAN,              I WILL,           and   I AM.
