On the new album Songs My Father Sang, a tribute album to her father, singer-pianist Dana Greene comes full circle and returns home to the musical roots of her childhood.
“My Dad was a band singer in the fifties at the famed Grossinger’s Hotel in the Catskill Mountains of NYC. So much of our time was spent together at the piano. I’d play as he wailed on tunes from The Great American Songbook. It was then that this music became a part of me - a part of my musical journey. I felt compelled to record these songs, some of his most beloved and favorite, because not only are they some of the most beautiful songs ever written -- but when I sing them I can feel him, I can hear him, I can see his smile. He loved to hear me sing these songs. So with the joy of him in my heart, I feel honored to bring these Songs My Father Sang to you, with new life, love, and inspiration.”
