Elizabeth Schaefer's newest CD "Moodswing" is a step towards rock-cabaret.

Traction


Jon Hain - Catalog

This is the one that has everyone's attention... TRACTION picks up where the debut leaves off and it never looks back. From the foot tappin' all out energy of "Trish Dresser", to the intelligent, contemplative, yet explosive "Jimmy", this album has it all.
