My Latest Song, "European Girls," Approved For Release

 


My song, European Girls, has been approved for release to the music streaming services by my distributor, RouteNote.  I originally wrote this song in 2020 but didn't get around to recording it until earlier this year.  The scheduled release date is Friday, January 12, 2024.

Stay tuned for updates.

"Oh! Bid Me Not Forget" Is Live


This 1854 romantic ballad by Frederick Buckley was recorded in my studio in Thomas Young's Well-Temperament of 1799. I hope you enjoy hearing the music that entertained audiences in the middle of the 19th Century. As far as I can determine, this is the first and only recording of this song.
