Recently hitting the barbecue circuit with Barry is Concord recording label artist, Curtis Stigers. Curtis is still on the road even though Barry has finished for now. Check out www.curtisstigers.com for the latest information. The photo on the left, taken in New Haven, CT, during the summer tour shows that Curtis is a man of many talents. The man plays a mean sax as well, seen here, on the right, in Holmdel, NJ accompanying Barry during 'Do You Know Who's Living Next Door?'

The Barbecue circuit also saw the talents of Byron Motley utilized during the emotional finale of Let Freedom Ring. Byron worked with the local choirs brought in to bring the house down nightly in the age old tradition of George M. Cohan, including the Grand Old Flag unfurled. We have know of a couple of sites where you can learn much much more about Byron Motley, Filmmaker, Lecturer and Performer or try Byron Motley
