"Sometimes, a musical comes along that announces itself from its first few notes as something very, very special... Overtones are being created, individual threads of music are weaving together to form a tapestry of emotion and sense of place that overcomes you like a wave crashing against the rocks. The sound is New York, and it's as familiar as the constant rush of sound of the streets, but simultaneously invigorating and musically new."

Thanks for the add! I heard your music and was really drawn into it. I always appreciate true talent. I hope that someday we will cross paths and hopefully be working on a project together. All the Best Mike K.
Thanks for the add! Someday, although you don't know it yet, I will sing one of your songs onstage and you will be in the audience. I can't wait to meet you both! :)
:D:D:)I love your music. You are amazing composers. I love the new song Two Stangers. I feel that I am being cheesy by using the word love so much, but your music truly is magnificent.
Hiya Kait and Brian, how's it goin'? It's been a while since I've dropped you a line, so I thought I'd check out your space, have a listen to some of your tracks and send a big HELLO your way!! ;) Hope everything's going well with you and your music!! I've just completed a run of workshop performances of my new musical 'THE EDGE'; you can view a clip of it on my space. :) Anyway, keep up the tremendous work & keep on rockin'!! Best wishes, ~Nick ;)
Hi! I absolutely adore your music. It's completely beautiful and so inspiring! I especially love the songs from The Unauthorized Biography of Samantha Brown - um, Broadway, look out!
I've actually recorded myself singing Run Away With Me (yes, I am a girl!). Would anything be more awesome than hearing your feedback? I'm not so sure.
