Songs for Sophie: A Collings Collective
Songs for Sophie: A
Collings Collective is a special recording project whereby some of the
most talented musicians in acoustic music have volunteered their time
and talent to help a very special girl, Sophie McCreary, and her family.
Sophie is currently ten years old and has early onset bipolar disorder.
[For more information about Sophie, please visit:
http://www.anm.com/sophie/.] Sophie's dad, Steve McCreary, is the
general manager of Collings Guitars, Inc. of Austin, Texas.
All
of the musicians who have contributed to this project own and play
Collings instruments and used those instruments - guitars and mandolins -
on this recording. Each musician eagerly contributed to this project
(without pay), not only because it was to benefit a good cause, but
because of the love they have for their Collings instruments and the
company that makes them. Collings guitars and mandolins are regarded as
some of the highest quality instruments being built today. But a high
quality product is not the only thing that keeps these artists loyal to
Collings. Loyalty is built upon personal relationships and a big part of
that loyalty to Collings is due to the relationship these artists have
with Steve McCreary. Steve is one of the friendliest, easy to get along
with, and professional individuals in the music industry and thus has
earned the respect and high regard of everyone who has had the pleasure
of working with him. When I contacted each of these fine musicians and
asked if they would contribute to this project they did so without
hesitation. "I'll do anything to help Steve," was the typical response.
When
you gather together some of the world's best musicians, playing some of
the world's finest acoustic instruments, and ask them to play from
their heart to help a man who they all respect greatly, and the daughter
who he dearly loves, the result is nothing short of musical magic. I
hope you will enjoy listening to this recording as much as we enjoyed
making it. All proceeds from this recording go directly to help offset
the high costs of Sophie's care. I thank you for helping that effort by
purchasing this CD. If you feel inspired to lend more help to Sophie,
please visit the above mentioned website and navigate to the "What To
Do" page.
