"For me, the most special aspect of performing with Linda is being able to 'jam' to the new songs we worked so hard on together!

My favorite song is 'Make Today Beautiful.' Linda and I really worked hard on getting this song right. We did several re-writes and created many melodic changes. Linda's instincts, vocal execution and style really come through on this song. I love the vibe of the music and power of the lyrics. I'm really proud of the work we did on this song."

"Definitely the best part of performing with Linda is hearing her sing the songs I've written, but also being across the stage from Billy and enjoying the few moments in the show when we make eye contact. It just reminds me of the friendship I've developed with him and the incredible journey we've both been on making this record and performing together with Linda.

I'd have to say that I really like 'Both Sides Now.' That song is one of my favorite moments in the show. I still can't believe Linda picked me to do it with her. I almost have to pinch myself and ask myself if it's real. Just to be able to sing a duet with a voice like Linda's is something I will never forget."

"The first thing that hits me is Linda's personality. It goes without saying that she is so incredibly talented. She's a total joy and it is reflected in the people that surround her in the band. She always has such fantastic bands, and because she's such a cool person, people end up staying in her band for years. She's very comfortable to be around, just like what you see on stage. Everyone in the band has a great sense of humor. I think what is most special is that Linda is so generous, always thinking of others. When planning her shows, she tries to make sure everyone is comfortable. I wish everyone could be at rehearsals because that's when the band gets loose and really jokes around.

The first song I heard from the CD was 'Ghost.' I was blown away by the direction change. I guess I'm partial to that song, but truly I really don't have a favorite song. That's a good thing. I think it's a really strong CD, and I love the concert set we've put together. Linda and Billy have worked incredibly hard, and it shows when you listen to the CD. It's a joy to listen to Linda sing. She chose the material well. What a gift to have Shaun as a writer and now singing in the band. It's all just a real pleasure. I feel honored to be part of the band."

"Before the last show we played, Billy asked me about playing a keyboard part instead of some other instrument we had rehearsed - presumably violin. It felt like he probably was just musing about the possibility of making that change sometime in the future, but I expressed that I would be willing to do that new thing during that show without trying it in a rehearsal. I found it quite fun that he was open to that and I played a part during that show that I had never tried before. I wish all the shows with Linda and The Other Side Of Me Band could have a little surprise like that!

I really like 'Ghost.' It is hard to articulate why I like this song because it's an emotional reaction, but when I hear the writing, the way it's put together, it surprises me."

"I'm enjoying how Linda's stepped up to the considerable challenge of doing a brand new show in a completely different genre. It's a bold move. The special part of the playing experience is getting beyond the mechanics of the show and making music; getting beyond the recording and experiencing the collective potential of some deeply talented people.

I'd probably say my favorite song is 'Nice Day For Flying.' It's a really good song, with a fun groove, a good hook, and a clever tongue-in-cheek lyric. And Linda wrote it!"

"I think the most special thing about playing with Linda is hearing that voice! As a sideman, that's what you always look for, someone who's a great performer, and can deliver the song every time. You have a much better chance of making everything sound good when that's happening, and with Linda it always is. I think she's got a real connection to the new music and it comes across on stage. Also, the other musicians are all such amazing players and singers, you couldn't ask for a better band.

I'm really not sure about a favorite song yet. I've only done a few shows, so I'm just trying to make sure I get through the show in one piece!"
