These are songs about people I know and love now, or imagined from another time.
Where We Are rides you through a series of Cleveland themes from the here and now to then. Stories of Cleveland radio, record labels and the people making that scene are accompanied by bar bands throwing baseballs.
Inspiration for the songs comes from the garden variety that defines our city - including disc jockey Alan Freed, Interstate 77, record company executive Steve Popovich, Record Rendezvous founder Leo Mintz and the John Lowenstein Apathy Club.
