BBC Radio praises New England-based Jesse Terry’s music as beautifully crafted songs from a master singer-songwriter. A true musical journeyman, Jesse has made it his mission to share his love of music fully and completely, without regard for shading his emotions or tempering his convictions.

The stage had been Jesse’s home for a decade. He plays around 150 shows a year, from Bonnaroo to the Philadelphia Folk Festival, the 30A Songwriters Festival to AmericanaFest. When the pandemic canceled concerts and delayed the album’s release, he pivoted to performing online and found a strong new connection to his fans, who had helped fund his albums all along. My musical tribe has always been there for me, he says with gratitude.

Though recorded in 2019, the songs off the new album click with fans online too. He and his band recorded When We Wander live in the studio, a first for his career. I wanted to try that Jason Isbell, Chris Stapleton, and Neil Young approach to live recording, prioritizing emotion and raw performances over perfection. I loved that experience. Recorded live, the album resonates especially with the intimacy and community spirit of the online shows.

Bruce Sudano is noted for his hit-crafting work for Dolly Parton, Donna Summer, and Jermaine Jackson.

“Singer-songwriter Bruce Sudano comes on the Goldmine Podcast to talk about his latest Spirals EP and his past songwriting credits such as “Bad Girls,” a huge hit for his wife, the late Donna Summer.” – Goldmine Magazine

“Bruce Sudano Hits The High Notes, Recasting Himself as a Timeless Troubadour” – American Songwriter Magazine

Mentored early on by pop wiz Tommy James of Tommy James and the Shondells fame, Bruce Sudano was one of those fortunate few who was able to achieve a parallel career as both an artist and songsmith. Nevertheless, he achieved his greatest glories by way of the material made famous by others among them, the Jacksons, Dolly Parton, and his late wife, Donna Summer.

Bruce Sudano returns with a fresh offering of dispatches from the heart on his latest EP of new original songs, Ode to a Nightingale. The new record succeeds a pair of equally immediate, thoughtful, and urgent mini-albums issued in 2020. Released April 2020, Spirals Vol. 1: Not a Straight Line to Be Found was praised by Americana Highways for its five moving songs about life, love, and death that captivate and hold the listener’s attention. Sudano’s October 2020 release Spirals Vol. 2: Time and the Space In Between garnered a four-star review from American Songwriter, with writer/author Lee Zimmerman noting, that Sudano’s found himself on a steady roll.
