Album Notes

Award-winning performance writers of TallGrass Writers Guild present their poetry and fiction filled with laughter, tears and excitement. You'll visit a World War II refugee camp at Christmas; romantic downtown Chicago; a toddler child on the loose in sunny Santa Fe; and the kitchen of a NW Indiana Polish widow whose food seduces the narrator as well as the listener. All writers' performances feature original music composed and arranged by Grammy contender Keenan Baxter, who has five albums on CD Baby.

Fans of fine writing everywhere will applaud this outstanding literary entertainment enhanced by extraordinary musical soundscapes from a young aspiring talent. Each time you hear these pieces you will deepen your enjoyment of this emotional roller coaster ride from sadness to joy; loneliness to romantic connections; and loss to exhilaration in this TallGrass Writers Guild celebration of life.

Awesome! Great variety-- all so different, and every one of them makes me want to hear more from each artist. Keenan Baxter's music is perfect for these readings, bringing out the subtleties of each author's work, enhancing the rhythms of words and phrases so there's something new every time you listen.
