CD Waiting

Waiting For The Sun is Steve Gretz's debut CD. It contains nine original songs that range from satire and spoof, to nostalgic coming-of-age songs, to love ballads. Steve also covers five songs written by folk artists Peirce Pettis, John Gorka, James Mee, Hugh Blumenfeld and Dick McCormack. Together, these songs tell about the triumph of hope, through lives and times that can get confused and painful:

        "I don't know the reason why it took so long to find
         This peace I'm feeling waiting for the sun
         But each life has a season when the heart can thaw the mind
         And in your arms my springtime's just begun..."

Also appearing on Waiting for the Sun are:
       Doug Arnold: guitar and vocals
       Suzanne Owen: keyboard and vocals
       Raymond Gonzalez: guitar
       Steve Howrey: bass
       John DiSanto: drums
