What's New:
Our new CD "You Love Who You Love" is finally here! Click http://cdbaby.com/cd/specialblendmusic. It will take a few weeks for digital downloads.
We are resurrecting our website specialblend.org. Coming soon to a computer near you!
New song: "My Sweet Girl" was written by Sue Lopez and Cece Cook. Cece battled lung cancer for nearly 5 years and this song expresses her love for her daughter Tess. The song was played at the May 9 Relay for Life event in Phoenix. Four days later Cece passed away. I'm sad, and also very grateful we were able to create this song.
Keep checking for hot news!

We are Special Blend, Bob and Sue Lopez. Sue is the singer-songwriter and Bob is the multi-instrumentalist and producer. We just do our thing. We have stuff to say, then pick a music style that fits the words, add some ear candy and hopefully it stirs the soul. It's about art and emotion. No tattoos, no facial piercings. Elton John would be pleased.
We've done a gazillion gigs over the years...churches, fairs, coffee houses, house concerts, the Bluebird in Nashville and even Dodger Stadium. Our influences include jazz, Latin classics, pop/rock, country, and the greats from all the decades we've lived through, which is going on five now. We're not the new kids on the block. We are old souls but young at heart. We're madly in love with music and with each other.
So listen and if you like what you hear, see the CDBaby and iTunes links above and buy our stuff.
Thanks for visiting us here. Specialblend.org will be back in business soon.
Blessed is the influence of one, true loving soul on another. -George Eliot

It's so nice to hear from you. Yes, Alan O'Day performed last Friday night. He is amazing and so entertaining. Everyone loved him. Hope you and Bob are having a great summer. Let me know when you finish recording your new songs. Maybe you would like to make another trip to Huntington Beach and perform at "Writers In The Round" We would all love to see you again and hear your music.
Thank you for your lovely comment! I'm not playing in the V.C. area anytime soon, but I do have a show at The Viper Room on Sunday, July 2nd if you're around.
