Come On Down is the new mini-album from Kevin Renick, the acclaimed composer behind "Up in the Air," the theme song to the popular 2009 George Clooney movie. The disc contains six new Renick compositions (one of which, "No Second Dates," was co-written with Christa Juergens, an old high school flame of Renick's) and a lively remix of NSD featuring Christa's voice. Also included: "Goodbye, Typewriter," a popular song from Renick's live shows; "Come On Down (and Pull Me Up)," a rousing rocker about friendship and survival during tough times; and "Call It A Life," a potent emotional ballad recorded by Grammy-nominated engineer Adam Long and featuring a violin performance by Gretchen Hewitt. Six of the seven tracks feature Renick's core band of Ned Watson, lead guitar; Ted Moniak, bass and guitar; and Andrea Spencer, drums. The CD was produced by Justin Robinson in two St. Louis studios, and mastered by Brad Sarno.
