BUSINESS & PLEASURE/180 GR GATEFOLD SLEEVE

Description

Emm Gryner is an award-winning, best-selling singer, songwriter, actress, and author. Emm sang and played keyboards with David Bowie, and appears on numerous recordings including his historic 1999 SNL appearance, Bowie at The Beeb and Toy, and on Bowie's famous Glastonbury 2000 in front of over 100,000 fans at Worthy Farm. With Trapper, she has shared stages with Def Leppard, and she also helped bring the world's first music video recorded in space to life. Detroit radio has formed the soundtrack to Emm's life and career, and her brand new record is a celebration of that music. From Motown, jazz, and pop, to Steely Dan, Fleetwood Mac, and the Doobies, *Business & Pleasure* is steeped in the sunny soul and stellar playing of the late 70s and early 80s. The songs, produced by Fred Mollin, written with poet Michael Holmes and recorded with drummer Shannon Forrest (Toto), keyboardist Pat Coil (Michael McDonald), bassist Larry Paxton (Alison Krauss) and guitarists Tom Bukovac (Taylor Swift) and Pat Buchanan (Hall & Oates, Dolly Parton), embody a yacht rock - also known as West Coast - approach that has been very trendy again for a few years.
