This Christmas… won’t you help me feed the hungry? Every year for the past several years, I’ve produced a Christmas song and sent it to my family and friends as a kind of very personal gift to them. This year, I’m doing something different and I’m asking all of you to help, too. It seems like every time I turn on the TV, there’s more news of how people are going hungry. This is just wrong. Period. NOBODY should ever be hungry in a country as wealthy and technically endowed as this one. Add to that the recent devastation of hurricane Sandy and there are a whole lot of people who are seriously hurting in New York and New Jersey this holiday season. The photos of my fellow New Yorkers and residents of the New Jersey shore depicting the overwhelming destruction of homes, businesses and livelihoods are just heartbreaking. In that light, I am releasing this song with the hope that you’ll join me in trying to help those in need. ALL money collected from the sale of this single or contributed by donation will be divided equally between City Harvest in New York City, and the Food Bank of New Jersey. It’s amazing how far a few dollars can go to feed someone who’s hungry. Can you help? Will you help? More About Me: I'm a musician, composer and lifelong, irredeemable wanderer. I am currently saxophonist with the New Jersey based soul/rock band Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, one of the rockin-est, most joyful circus-rides I've ever had the pleasure to share a stage with. In addition to touring with the Jukes, I'm deeply engaged in producing music for many various projects in my studio in the contemporary jazz, soul, funk and roots r&b genres. This is a contemporary soul version of the Donny Hathaway classic featuring myself and fellow Jukes members Chris Anderson on trumpet and Glenn Alexander on guitar. I produced, arranged, recorded and mixed the track.
