small towns

I didn't want to bother everyone recently.  Too much going on with the election, the weather and all.  But I would love to create a theme song for a local town once again.  I've had a blast so far.  Looking for a nomination, and some fun facts about it too...

LOVE the Small Town Tour here on 'GNA.  We get to see who we broadcast to every day, and it's great to shake some hands and break bread with folks.  Next stop? Duanesburg. I would love to write a song a bout it, but I'm only one man.  I need info!  Can you help?

Last week Fonda was the winning town in the Small Town Tour poll so the Sean and Richie show will be heading to Fonda the 3rd Friday in October to broadcast their morning show live and enjoy enjoy a nice breakfast with all of our awesome listeners in Fonda. This week we see who gets the final stop on the 1077 'GNA Small Town tour with the poll below.

Your Town Thursday's making it's return for the fall season. I'm very excited to put your little corner of the world to music. This isn't my first rodeo, to be sure.

Two Saratoga County towns have made the finals for a theme song to be created on next week's Your Town Thursday.  Who will it be now?  Cast your vote!

Sorry folks, but the brain needs a little recharging, so I am taking this Thursday off from Your Town Thursday, the feature where a song is written about a local small town.  But that doesn't mean I don't want your nominations

This was a big challenge.  I mean, why do people climb Mount Everest?  Because it's THERE, that's why.  So I climbed my own mountain.  I wanted to see if I could do a 20 song medley of Your Town Thursday songs.   I hope you like it.

It was a fairly tight race between Ballston Spa and Perth.  Looks like the Spa wins the right to have a theme song written for them  (Don't worry, Perth.  I'll get to you next week)

I'm slowly losing count of how many songs I've written for local towns.  But the quest continues to write one for each hamlet, village or "one horse town" in the Capital Region.  (And don't take the "one horse town" line personally.  I think those are the most fun to write.

I love the small towns.  The smaller the better, as far as I'm concerned, and this one is SMALL.  Welcome once again to this installment of Your Town Thursday

Berne, New York - it's time to put you on the map.  You need a song, and you're getting one, darn it.

Sometimes these things write themselves.  Other times it's staring blankly at a blank page until something comes to mind.  That's songwriting for ya.   A big factor is the amount of information I am given beforehand.  That's where hopefully you can come in for the next  Your Town Thursday song
