New Album "Coffee In Connecticut" I have never been so touched by anything in my whole life!!
I am so proud and honored to finally be able to share these timeless pieces of music written by my late Grandfather, Ernest G. Schweikert and his Co-Writer, Frank Reardon. These two men wrote music for some of the most legendary Artists of all time including Billie Holiday and Frank Sinatra and never received a dime for any of it. My Grandfather was so heart broken by the business that he threw away every single piece of music he had ever written and never spoke of it again. You can read the full story on my page. It is something more dear to my heart than I could ever explain and it's something that I have learned so much from... but more than anything it has been an incredible opportunity to share a love so deep with my Grandfather that I never would have been able to share otherwise because he passed away when I was very young. Finding his music and being able to record the songs he wrote so many years ago is something that I will cherish for the rest of my life.... I hope you'll take a moment to listen. You can find the full album at: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/melissamarquais Thanks so much!
