Hi everyone,
The members of Byron Biggers Band — CHRIS CRAIG, GALE CLITHERO, and DAVID HARRISON — are planning a recording session. We were recorded once, many years ago, when we played a program in a studio at KSMU public radio. It was part of a series called “Night of a Thousand Stars” hosted by JEANNE DUFFEY, who at the time was Community Relations Director for Springfield-Greene County Library District. We each received one CD of that performance and each of us lost ours.
We played other venues from time to time: book store, schools, a literature festival, etc. For the past several years we’ve rested on our laurels. But NO MORE! Chris is making big plans to record us in a proper manner so that we can point with pride to all the fun we’ve had performing my poems, arranged musically by Chris, and performed nobly by Byron Biggers Band!
We are even adding one or two new arrangements to our repertoire. I sent Chris five new selections, he chose three that speak to him musically, and will develop one or two for the recording. We’re also adding another one or two musicians and some vocals from MSU singers. Plans are fluid and may change and grow. Planning such an event is half the fun!
