Thanksgiving is about family, so for this Thanksgiving week I want to congratulate my father, Bob Richardson, on the release of his first set of songs on iTunes.
My Dad is an architect by day, but he has had a passion for music his entire life, and he wrote the music and lyrics for a number of songs before and after Hurricane Katrina. His band's name is Beau Swank, and the band just released four songs on their new EP entitled Gras Deux. The songs are: The New New Orleans, The Living is Easy, Marigny Mambo and The Lafayette Waltz.
I know I'm biased, but all four of them are great songs. Listen to the previews on iTunes (or Amazon Music, but iTunes has longer previews) and if you like what you hear, treat yourself to a few new songs this week. Click the link below to bring up the songs in iTunes:
