The Mike Caruso Quintet - CD Release Celebration

Scott Hall

Song For Amy is Mike Caruso's first CD. It was recorded in August and October of 2007 and features New England based Jazz musicians Molly Flannery on Piano, Daryl Lowery on Saxophone, Mike Connors on Drums, John Funkhouser on Bass and Mike Caruso on Bass and Guitar.

On the CD, there are 9 original compositions that represent the last 2 decades of musical endeavors. About one half of the music was composed prior to 2006 and the rest composed while Mike was recovering from a Bone Marrow Transplant to help fight Leukemia.

Sales of the CD and CD release performances will be donated to benefit Bone Marrow Transplant research and patient care. So far the CD has raised over $3000 dollars with the hope for a lot more to come.
