Dan Weber and Susan Cattaneo - Split Bill
Award winning songwriter Dan Weber's shows are as much a 'Conversation' with the audience as they are a performance. The hilarious stories he tells between songs take on a life of their own, weaving a backdrop for his literate, funny, and heartfelt songs. Almost always audiences will sing a long with favorites like '(I Deal with) Crazy ALL Day', 'Oh Woody' and others.
And there's something really unique about Weber's shows. His inspired and energetic performances are one-of-a-kind. Although it's hard to put a finger or name on 'it', it's clear that Weber has 'it' in spades; that mercurial quality that Todd Snider and Hayes Carll have, the ability to take an audience of any size along for the ride for an unforgettable night. Sometimes his shows are impromptu affairs: in train stations, living rooms, around campfires and even on the rim of the Grand Canyon, but no matter wherever they happen, each one is 'Special' and not to be missed.
"4 Stars: Has you hanging on to every word. That's the touch of a true Master Craftsman Songwriter." - Alan Cackett, Editor: Maverick Magazine, UK
Susan Cattaneo has been a songwriting professor at Boston’s prestigiousBerklee College of Music for 13 years. She’s written songs covered by numerous artists in Nashville, and her tunes helped launch the careers ofJillian Cardanelli and Erica Nicole. Cattaneo, the singer-songwriter, has released three albums of mostly upbeat, catchy pop-country music, “Brave and Wild,” in 2009, “Heaven to Heartache” in 2011 and “Little Blue Sky” in 2012. You’ll hear a blend of country, rock and soul with sparkles of blues and folk, music that would slide into the comfort zone for fans of Bonnie Raitt, Emmylou Harris, Mary Chapin Carpenter or Sheryl Crow. She knows how to craft a lyric and pen a hook, to marry lyric and melody. On her albums, she says, “I did mainstream country songs I originally wrote for others, and I found myself a mainstream country artist. The single ‘Girls Night Out’ from ‘Heaven to Heartache’ charted. Some people wanted another single like that. And I wondered, ‘Is that really me?’” The answer she came up with: Not quite. So this is her first album where she wrote every song with herself in mind, not with the idea that another artists would sing it.
