Today's Musical Guest - Saturday, June 30

Today we are featuring the one and only Preston Smith, a truly unique and unforgettable artist.

Also, check out our very own Jeff Phillips! In addition to handling the board for the Bree Walker Show, he is a talented singer/songwriter - take a listen to his music!
Preston will be performing tomorrow night (Sunday) 8:30 at Jax in Glendale - 339 N. Brand Blvd.

How does one categorize an artist who, during the span of his career, has sung for Barbra Streisand's wedding, performed at countless functions for people such as Steven Spielberg, Aaron Spelling, and the late Sonny Bono, played harmonica and scat rapped alongside Salt'N Pepa on Quincy Jones TV show Vibe, played alongside Chaka Khan at a Grammy Awards Party for Black Entertainment Television Corporation, and has had the likes of Bonnie Raitt, Eddie Van Halen, Jerry Lee Lewis and Greg Allman, among countless others, join him on-stage for impromptu jam sessions.

Preston has performed on The Tonight Show along with the late Jimmy Stewart and released an album on Curb Records entitled Preston Smith. He appeared on the hit movie soundtrack Cocktail starring Tom Cruise with the title song Oh I Love You So, which he composed, produced and performed. The soundtrack went on to sell over six million units foreign and domestically. Roseanne Cash then recorded his song Black and White, which released as a single, rose to number 30 on the country radio charts and was included in her greatest hits CD which went on to sell gold. Prestons latest CD's are" That Real Feel",which he produced and released on his own label, was recorded live in the studio and is a combination of many genres of the past.
