Wednesday, March 3, 2010 Keep the Light Alive "I Don't Believe In Yesterday"
Keep The Light Alive. One hell of an idea. For hope, for inspiration, for life. For Eric Lowen. As you might already know, Eric was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) around 6 years ago. Since that time, he has chosen to live with purpose. Dan Navarro, of Lowen and Navarro, says, "Eric makes that his commitment every day." Dan, himself, is uncomfortable being included in a "tribute" album, as he chooses to deflect the attention. This project simply celebrates Eric Lowen, and the contributions that he makes as a singer, songwriter, and performer. As Dan has tried to take the focus off himself, we credit this performance accordingly, even though it is Dan with the legendary Freebo at the helm.
For more information on the project, check out the website here. This album supports The Eric Lowen Trust, which was created to offset the enormous costs of fighting his illness and helps support his family, which includes his wife and their 5 children. Music Fog is honored to have had these fine musicians on the bus during Folk Alliance to further the cause.
